Revelation 22:19
"And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."-Revelation 22:19
Ok, this verse if used very commonly for the defense of the KJO position, since we believe it to be the Word of God, and those who remove or add to it be found liars in the sight of Holy God. MY problem with the citing of this verse is this: Isn't the writer speaking of "the book of THIS prophecy"? While the Bible is filled with prophecy, aren't we only talking about Revelation, of which the entire book is prophecy? Book meaning 1/66th of the Bible, since there are 66 books in the Bible? I take heed to the promise in this verse, that those who take away from (what I believe the writer to be talking about) Revelation, will have their name taken out of the book of life, and those who add to (what I believe the writer to be talking about) Revelation shall have the plagues inflicted upon him. My question flat out is: isn't "The book of THIS prophecy" talking about Revelation? |
