The Lord Gave us Illustrations, (1)
and we offer his "Little Scroll".
.

  Unbelievers claim His Word has many contradictions,
But have failed to give just one authentic example.

Others said The Christ's speech was shocking! (2)
Even now, upon his Word many defiantly "trample".
(3)

If they read and "believed all things" in holy need, (4)
They would come to learn His Sacred "Way".

Their knowledge of His Word would remove all doubts,
And they would find where His sacred purpose lay.

The Christ abbreviated his word for future times,
Used illustrations to create conceptual pictures.

His "Little Scroll" (5) once sweet, now bitter to apostates,
Permeates these poems with proven scriptures.

Apostates (6) acquired knowledge but for "a change", (7)
"Trampled" anointed holy ones for a seat of godship.
(8)

Usurping the holy place, changed His "times and Law", (9)
Seating themselves in a place of self-worship.
(10)

There is no salvation for apostates, they are abandoned,
Because they exchanged the truth of God for the Lie.
(10)

Their misuse of God's Law will take them by surprise,
Their contempt will bring them torments when they die.
