Adding to God’s Word
By Joel Joseph
Researched by Pastor Gary Boyd
Conclusion by Pastor Boyd
March 23rd 2021
The previous edition, “Removing eschatology” was about the grave danger of removing end-time teaching and doctrine from your theology and experience.
This edition is about the opposite, which is the forbidden practice of adding to God’s word.
Either adding or subtracting anything substantial from the word is condemned and will get you cursed. (Deuteronomy 4:2, Revelation 22:18-19)
Proverbs 30:5-6 “Every word of God is pure...Do not add to His words, lest He reprove you and you be found a liar.”
Adding to the scriptures essentially changes the gospel to “another gospel”, and the Lord to “another Christ.” (Galatians 1:6-9).
Bear in mind that God’s word is not just the written scriptures, but His now, speaking word in the heart of men, particularly prophets and watchmen.
This word can also be interfered with, wrongly presented, added to, and turned into error.
Jeremiah 23:16-17 “Do not listen to the words of the prophets (false); they fill you with false hopes. They speak dreams and visions of their own minds and not from the Lord. They keep saying to those who despise Me, ‘The Lord has said you will have peace,’ and to everyone who walks according to the dictates of his own heart, they say, ‘no evil will come upon you.’”
By adding to or taking away from the scriptures you can make them say anything you want. Media editors are experts in painting a picture their way using this tactic. Politicians do it; advertising companies do it, and all the world’s idiots fall for it.
A big tool of manipulation is to obscure certain things and over-emphasis others.
One of the big reasons adding to the scriptures is forbidden is because it introduced man’s god -Satan into the picture.
Man as god is fast revealing his god is Satan!
But when all is said and done:
John 10:35 “...The scriptures cannot be broken...”
Trying to change or break the scriptures always break you – always!
Pumping up the world:
So many Christian ministries continue to proclaim and declare that the world will go back to normal and the world will soon be their friend again. They are in love with the world.
Their message is nothing but the removal of prophecy about the end of the world and then adding to it, the great error of coming to peace within the confines of great and growing sin of the world.
If the world is going back to normal, it would have to go back to the time before Eve got his boyfriend to eat some juicy forbidden fruit! People are not putting their trust and hope in the new world of glory that is coming soon, where there will be no sin, because they can’t see it.
How do I know that? Easy, they are not preparing for it, and still making love to their poor soon-to-be destroyed whore - the world system.
It is far better to focus on a new world coming. It is on the far side of the cross. When you get the revelation of the glory that is soon to come you want it all to hurry up.
“Are we there yet” can be the irritation of a brat in the backseat, or a genuine cry of those with spiritual eyes open. “There yet”, is a place beyond imagination in beauty and glory.
Well, we’re being weaned off this insane world and need to get our minds around what lies before us – glory to glory!
I once was the proud owner of a skateboard, then a bicycle, then a 50cc motor bike and then a 500cc Thumper – off-road motorbike which made all pale in comparison. Then I got my first car, and then my pilot’s licence. Then started jumping out of aeroplanes, then I bought a hang-glider and then numerous cars and had many girlfriends. It was all a progression and a journey to “are we there yet?” But it was all in worldly, material terms – all a waste of time.
Now, I’m half crippled, homebound no girlfriends, and happier than I’ve ever been! You can have your world with all its bikes, cars, planes and chicks. Nothing compares to life growing in the Spirit.
Today people live for materialism and worldliness and sex, not realising that one day their sex will dry up and they will have nothing left but an empty screech – “eeeek”. The wise ones work on their deeper spiritual life and grow in wisdom as they grow old – and that keeps getting better!
You can’t take away from God’s methods:
The purpose of the plagues of Egypt was to cause the people to know the Lord and release them from captivity in Egypt (a type of the world) so that they could worship the Lord in the desert. (Exodus 9:1)
Exodus 10:2 “Tell of the mighty signs I have done in Egypt, among them, that you may know that I am the Lord.”
God brings His own children to maturity through many methods; none are wrath and judgement, because that has already happened through the cross. But for the unsaved who have forsaken God’s mercy, only wrath and judgement remain.
Unsaved people can’t see that they’re on fire already!
There is great inner satisfaction in rescuing people on fire, out of this world on fire, and bringing them to Messiah. (Jude 1:23)
We are to rescue people, not join them in the fire. Ministries that are too close to the world have to change their scriptures.
●They replace eschatology with: “Everything will carry on as it always has.” (2 Peter 3:4)
●They will redefine and try to get rid of sin by saying that there is no sin. (Isaiah 50:20)
●They replace the coming judgement with: “No accountability is required”. (Psalm 10:13)
●They will say no repentance is required. “(Jeremiah 8:6-9)
●They will get rid of God’s plan for Israel and replace it with Satan’s: (Psalm 83:4)
●They must reject the present order of things and add a new one-world order, with a one world economy and religion. (Isaiah 10:13-14)
●They will get rid of boundaries between nations and replace this with a new globalism and one-world government.(Acts 17:26)
●They will get rid of gender barriers creating a world of abnormality as normal. (Romans 1:24-27)
●They will cast down biblically based morality and replace it with a new evil, demonic morality. (Revelation 22:11)
●They will have to get rid of the prime trouble maker for them – God and His Bible, and replace Him with their own god – the antichrist. (Revelation 13:15)
So, you think you are saved:
How do you know if you are saved? ●You will begin to see the things of the world grow dim. ●You will begin to love the things of the word and despise the things of the devil that you so fully embraced before. ●You will have a desire to move forward with the Lord in His new, holy life. ●You will begin to be repulsed by sin. ●Something in your heart will bear witness with others who are also saved, even though you might not even know them yet.
Many people say they are Christians. Many churches think they are of God. Here is a basic test:
What is their position on the three major biblically based big issues of today? ●What is there position on the human rights of a woman to murder her unborn child? ●What is there position on nation-shaking sins of homosexuality and its offshoots? ●What is their position on Israel and the Palestinian issue?
Paul the apostles said: “I have not shunned to “fully preach the word of God to you”. (Acts 20:27, Romans 15:19)
It is a “fully preached” gospel that produces a fully balanced Christian. A fully preached gospel led by the Spirit leaves no room for error! It fixes you and keeps you on the right track.
People use the gospel to create false doctrines. They “use” the Holy Spirit in their fraudulent manipulation. You don’t “use” the Holy Spirit for anything. They are using their spirit and hosts of other spirits in their elevated pride.
The spiral dive:
When you get off God’s path and ways, you are in danger. Things deteriorate, devolute and get worse – always.
James 3:15 “This wisdom (satanic) does not descend from above, but is earthly (worldly), sensual (soulish) and demonic.”
The verse above shows this descent.
People often get to a place where their deception has totally engulfed them and ●blinded them. (Obadiah 1:3) ●God also blinds them. (John 12:40). ●Satan also blinds them to God. (2 Corinthians 4:4). ●Their own conscience becomes seared. They are doomed. (1 Timothy 4:2)
Jeremiah 30:15 “Why do you cry about your affliction? Your sorrow is incurable, because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins have increased; I have done these things to you.”
Jeremiah 2:11-13 “Has a nation changed its gods, which are not gods? But My people have changed their glory (God), for what does not profit. Be astonished O heavens at this, and be horribly afraid. Become very desolate, says the Lord. For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters and hewn for themselves broken cisterns that can hold no water.”
The way to victory:
We as believers are assigned strength to overcome the evil one. The word of the Bible, led and inspired by the Spirit of God is the only way to set your direction and fly high! If your walk is right, you will fly above the storms of the world.
True revival comes from a deep conviction of sin and repentance and a powerful desire to live in obedience to God, giving up one’s self-will and attachment to worldly ways.
True revival comes on “fully preaching” of the word, nothing added or removed.
If the fullness of the presence of God is in the church, the church will draw the world in. If the presence of God is not in the church, the world will draw the church out.
Believing without repentance is a mark of the counterfeit. Believing without the centrality of the cross is a mark of the counterfeit. Believing without believing the entire Bible is a mark of the counterfeit. This is the work of “another Jesus.”
In these end times darkness will increase dramatically, but light, right and righteousness will too.
“It’s a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” (Hebrews 10:31)
Abrahamic Accords - USA take note:
I will be doing a lot more on this as it all unfolds.
Four new nations are about to join the Abrahamic Accords. They will be Saudi Arabia, the big one, Qatar, Oman and Mauritania.
Already many of the regular blind watchmen are screaming: “This is the Daniel 9:27 peace covenant, just as they did with the “Deal of the Century” and the previous Abrahamic Accords. They are totally wrong, wrong, wrong.
These are not peace treaties of any sort, but normalization of business commerce industry and travel accords, - just like the previous ones. They are friendship agreements, and there are more coming!
But why are they so important? The answer shatters the garbage being presented by many watchmen and teachers that these are the antichrist’s seven year peace treaty!
Ezekiel 38 and 39 describe what has become known as the start of WW111 – the war of Gog and Magog. The groupings of allies against Israel and for Israel are most enlightening.
The major forces attacking Israel will be led by Russia, Iran, Turkey and a number of other nations. They ascend, coming like a storm covering the land. (Air combat.) The allies of Israel are referred to in Ezekiel 38:13 as “Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all their young lion cubs...”
So, who are the “young lions?” Most analysts, including myself identify the young lions as the commonwealth countries which were birthed by the adult lion – Britain. These would be: USA, Canada, South Africa, Australia and the others - the USA being the main player.
There is no doubt that the players are in modern terms. USA, Russia, Iran, Turkey. Sheba is most certainly present day Saudi Arabia (That’s where the queen of Sheba came from) Dedan is the Arab nations to the south of Saudi Arabia, which include the present day nations of the Arbrahic Accords. (It also includes Yemen)
So, is it a surprise that Saudi Arabia now stands in line for a normalization / friendship deal with Israel? In fact a map of these modern friendship accord nations is right here in the Bible in Ezekiel 38 & 39 – thousands of years old.
By the way, the four new additions to the Abrahamic Accords have nothing to do with Biden. He had no hand in them at all. It was Netanyahu and Kushner who put it together.
Again, let me stress that these accords have nothing at all to do with any antichrist deal or anything to do with Daniel 9:27 at all.
Now let’s briefly touch on the outcome of this war. Again, I need to caution you that there is a lot of garbage being taught by parrot ministers out there just parroting each other.
Reverend Parrot says that the “young lions” (USA included) do nothing when they see the attack on Israel from the north. They simply stand by and observe it all doing nothing. That is WRONG.
Yes in Ezekiel 38:13 the young lions question the attack. But that’s just the start of the story. As we go a few verses further on we see this, just as the armies of the north enter Israel: Ezekiel 39:3-6 “I will smite your bow from your left hand and will cause your arrows to fall out of your right hand and you shall fall dead on the mountains of Israel (Golan Heights) and all your hosts (armies) I will give to the ravenous birds and beasts to be devoured. You shall fall in the open field.”
This war goes on and on and great destruction follows that takes seven years to clean up.
So, let me ask you this. If these allies of Israel do nothing but watch, who is it that participates in this great war? Of course they will all be involved in the conflict.
But it will be Israel, with the help of her allies, including a bunch of Arab accord nations who will be the ultimate victors.
By the way, there are a number of other prophecies clearly identifying Arab nations as allies with Israel in these end-times. Many Muslin nations will be arch-enemies of Israel, but not all!
The big issue is that when this takes place it looks very likely that the USA will be an ally of Israel. That should be very good news for the US. That also may mean Biden’s days are numbered! Blinded Biden has already shown his shaky hand in these things, siding with Israel’s enemies on quite a few fronts!
Conclusion by Pastor Boyd
After the defeat of Russia and her allies during the start of WW3 the victory by Israel and the USA is so complete that ⅞ of their armies shall be destroyed and God will only leave the remaining 1/8th alive so that they may go back into their countries to tell of their defeat by Israel’s God. Russia is not spoken of in scripture after this and is a broken nation.
However, the Antichrist picks up the cry of the wicked to come against Israel and the USA and the march towards Armageddon begins. Half the world’s population will be destroyed as pestilence, famine, natural disasters, the star wormwood smashes into the earth, and 21 judgements on the earth will take its toll.
Before all this comes to be now is the time to say the sinner’s prayer so you will be taken in the rapture before the tribulation begins.

Right! Endtime teaching is the bread and butter of crazy, millionaire televangelists.

Amen and Amen thank you for that view of the scriptures and what to expect for the unsaved. I am personally glad that I have accepted Christ as my savior and I look forward for His return. Maranatha.

Can you tell me WHO wrote the Bible as we read it today and when?? Who decided what books went in and which were left out and why??

The final version was completed at Nicaea in the 4th century. A minority of the Church Fathers wanted Revelation tossed because it was totally bizarre---John was probably in his cups or hallucinating when he wrote it.
