Revelation 22:18 (New International Version)

18I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.

um,I think I've mentioned before that I was gonna go look around in the local LDS,and being the nosy little kid I was,I did

thing is,I was reading through revelation and this verse caught my eyes cos the mormons had their book of mormon? I'm just wondering if this was talking about them,or the catholics? (cathos have extra chapters in the bible,I think).

and well,it's a different concept for mormons right?cos their 'extra chapters' were not in the bible? I asked the missionaries about this particular verse,and they said something along the line of ''it's not to be taken literally.'' because according to them,the bible was not chronologically arranged,and that hebrews was supposedly after revelation.

so last question is,does it matter if the bible was chronologically arranged?

How about when the group asks you to swear on those extra books, adding an extra step needed to get to heaven?

Don't let anyone cover the truth with lies.

> Tyler: no,they don't swear upon it.As far as I know,they give us the books but we're not forced to read it or anything.At the most,we just dont get a temple recommend. =/

>Boanerges: the gal verses totally wowed me.I guess I have to read the bible more :3
but with regards to the extra chapters and all,does that include the catholics?

Yes, you're right, you need to read the Bible more. When you do get familiar with it, you will see lots of same scripture in the Bom as in the Bible. You don't really want to be temple approved, my Dear. If you do get that far, then you will be sorely disappointed because that is where the spirits will pull you down. That is where you open up yourself to all kinds of bondage. . . fear being the big one. I should probably stop here so I will not step on anyone's feet. Just please heed my words. I've been there, and know what you are feeling. I got out just in time. But I'm still praying for my friends who are so caught up in it's deception. If you have questions, you can pm me. Bonnie

Hi 3-nails,

The book of Revelation was written by the apostle John while he was on the island of Patmos.

The bible was only put together many years later by the early church fathers. The curse contained in the book of Revelation probably only pertains to the book of Revelation because when it was written the bible did not yet exist as a whole.

The bible is a collection of different books written by many different authors of very different backgrounds.

It is written over a period of more than two thousand years but is absolutely coherent. No other book can make this claim!

As Christians we would probably like the curse in Revelation to pertain to the whole Bible but I think it only is applicable to Revelation. Although the Bible is the written word of God, so any deliberate changes to make it less than what it is, is a form of blasphemy.

The bible is not put together in chronological order at all. Take the prophets, they are placed in order of length ie the major and minor prophets. Pauls Epsitles are not in chronological order either. If I remember correctly I think Ephesians was the fist letter and not the book of Romans.

Who ever told you that the Bible is in chronological order is not correct.
