Where in the KJV does it say that we should not add nor take away any words of the Bible?

Revelations 22:18-19

Hello SLLockart,

Chris has given you the verse in Revelation. There is also a verse in Deuteronomy 4:2 that speaks similarly about adding to the words the Lord has given through Moses or to take away or diminish them.

Thank you very much for your help.

Thank you for your help in finding out the answer to my question!! I do appreciate it.

( Proverbs 30:5-6)

( Rev 22:18-19)

( Jer 23:36) perverted is #2015; it means "to change".

( Ps 12:6-7) 6) "The words of the LORD are pure words" pure is #2889; it means unadulterated, uncontaminated, sound.

7) "Thou shalt keep them O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever". preserve is #5341, it means to guard, to protect, maintain, obey.

( John 14:23-24) "If a man love me, he will ((keep my words)) and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him".

This verse is telling us if we don't keep His words the Father and Jesus will not come unto us and abode with us.

Many on this site do not keep His words.

His words are pure words preserved for ever in the King James Bible, ((FOR EVER))

They are not preserved only in the manuscripts, ( 2 Tim 2:15) tells us "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth". We are told to study, and rightly divide the word of truth.

Can we study and rightly divide the Hebrew and Greek manuscripts today? No we can not!

His words are pure ( Proverbs 30:5) His words are Alive ( Heb 4:12) His words are Inspired ( 2 Tim 3:16) which is God breathed ( 2 Pet 1:19-21) His words are sound doctrine, His words are not perverted.

Modern versions are perverted words of men ( Jer 23:36) they have all "changed" the words of the living God!

It is very important to see this Truth, modern versions are doctrines of devils ( 1 Tim 4:1)

Modern versions are not sound doctrine ( 2 Tim 4:3-4)

I pray this is helpful to any who trust modern version bibles.

Blessings!

Yes this is very helpful. I am just learning this site so I may be late in response and I am also not always online but I do read my Bible KJV daily. So this is very helpful to me to learn more and more from.

Thank you for taking the time out to post all the scriptures to me, so I too can read them and they can help me to understand the Word.

God Bless!! You too.

You are very much welcome! Its good to have true believers in the True Word of God on this site!

Many here see the KJB as just another translation, sadly.

God Bless you!

Thank you for your very detailed comment. Very helpful to me, I am going to look at those scriptures to gain even more knowledge of the word.

Thanks again!!!

God Bless!

Deuteronomy 4:2

Revelation 22:18-19

Thank you very much for your help in learning more about the Word of God.

God Bless You!!

Hello SLLockhart. I believe the verse that is closest to what you seek is in Revelation 22:18,19. Although, these verses specifically relate to this particular book of prophecy (The Revelation) that no one might add or take away from the words of the Book or else suffer under God's Hand, the Truth would apply to all of Scripture. And 2 Timothy 3:16 reminds us that these Holy Scriptures are "given by (the) inspiration of God", or as in the Greek, "God-breathed"; which clearly shows us that the power & truth of God's Words are given by His Spirit - 'breathed' upon those writers, they being moved by Him to pen these words for all who read or hear them. This then becomes a very serious matter in the reading, understanding, & correctly 'dividing' of God's Word, without forcing any human input which can only bring corruption to it.

Thank you for that help!

I am a new to this person, and was curious about this scripture as it was brought up in a Facebook post.

Thanks again.
