Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing
The fault is not in Mathematics,
It’s just another of the enemy’s strategies
In the way he packages his tricks.
These are the patterns of a cult
The intent most often is to deceive,
They are regularly wrapped in sincerity
And made particularly easy to believe.
Do not be misled by their subtlety
Be led by the Holy Spirit,
Depend on him to reveal the Word
Let this be your daily habit.
There is no need to add to the Word
Or subtract from the person of Christ
In this one thing we can be confident
That Jesus is the only required sacrifice.
No need to multiply salvation’s requirements
Or divide the follower’s loyalty
Christ is all and in all to us
And is one with the blessed Trinity.
He is the object of our faith
And the expression of God’s grace
And if we deem his sacrifice as not enough
This is nothing short of a disgrace.
He deserves our total worship
He desires our absolute trust,
He demands our unswerving obedience
And that we walk in the faith of the just.
