Friend, how much have we compromised by mixing truth with tiny lies?
And if it’s only a little white lie, was it foolish for Christ to die?
Was it for Christ a compromise when He left His Father in Paradise?
Was it for God a compromise when He offered His Son as a sacrifice?
Friend, do you think that it was fun on the cross for God’s Only Son?
What is it that we really despise when we offer up little white lies?
Friend is it sin that we deplore or is it the very Word of The Lord?
Is the heart so deceitful above all that it’s the reason why we fall?
Is there anyone for us to blame when we change but stay the same?
Even if it is a deceitful heart, doesn’t our own choice play a part?
Did not Jesus Christ say that we would have life in Him abundantly?
Friend, if you’ve come to Jesus Christ, don’t you too have this life?
And if you have New Life in Him, how then can you approve of sin?
Have we not changed black and white, to only Satan’s sheer delight?
Don’t we twist the truth and say, it’s not wrong, that area is gray?
Don’t we outdate pure Bible fact, to change the way we talk and act?
Don’t we look at Truth from yesterday in a much different light today?
Lying was not a choice for Him; my friend is not a lie indeed a sin?
If Christ is the same as yesterday, why do we then embrace sin today?
If we can lie after we believe, who my friend, do we really deceive?
