Genesis 3:2-3, "And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die."

This morning, God's word is under attack from all quadrants. People are seeking about to change the commandments of the Lord, they are denying the eternal Sonship of Jesus Christ, claiming that the Lord created the universe by evolutionary methods, denying the virgin birth, and the list goes on and on.  Unfortunately, this is not a new concept. Solomon said that there is nothing new under the sun.

The Lord commands us not to add to or diminish from His word. (Deuteronomy 4:2) However, look at Eve's response to the serpent. She adds to and takes away from the word of the Lord. The Lord never once commanded the man and woman that they could not touch the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Eve told the serpent that the Lord had commanded such. Men today add to the word of God and lay burdens upon men's shoulders that ought not to be borne.
