Add to the Word?

Is it ok to add to the word of God or change what it means? Check out Proverbs 30. #YFA #iDevo

Do you know what happens when someone adds to the word of God or tries to change what it means? Today people and denominations are saying this part of the Bible no longer applies or there is change to what God said. People are even adding to the word of God and saying God said something that is not found in scripture.

The Bible though shares a lot on the word of God.. From it being the inspired word of God or God breathed (1 Timothy 3:16-17) , or that they are not man’s words but God’s (2 Peter 1:21) We know the words written int he Bible are the inspired word of God. Proverbs though gives a warning and in verse 6 that do not add to the word or you will be proven a liar.

Those are some harsh words and a reminder to be careful to what we are listening to. Even satan knows and can quote scripture, although he twists its meaning and we have to be careful that who we are listening to is not doing the same thing. (Matthew 4:1-11)

The only way though to do that is to be reading and studying the Bible yourself. So today make a commitment to daily spend time in the word and let it come alive in your life.
