In religion is Christianity or faith-based belief Vs Catechism worships of paganism if you edit the word or takeaway
We red\ad in Deuteronomy 4:2-3 (NKJV) You shall not add to the word which I command you, nor take from it, that you may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Your eyes have seen what the LORD did at Baal Peor; for the LORD your God has destroyed from among you all the men who followed Baal of Peor.
There are two warning that are used to protect the integrity of the faith that comes from hearing God. (God's faith as
it is written .)
1) Deuteronomy 4:2-3 . The warning is in respect to a
single word. Change the meaning of one word and the context of the commandments plural, giving another meaning . Like the word apostle. Catholisicim has changed the meaning in order to authorize men to lord it over the faith of the pew sitters .The Jews under the "law of the fathers) performed that in the same way .Therefore forcing the pew sitters to seek the approval of men seen and not God not seen making the commandment to study and seek the approval of God not seen without effect .
2) Revelation 22:18 -19. This warning comes along side as a final warning not to add to the whole .
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 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 22:18 -19
God is no longer brining any new prophecy that declare the will of God and moving men to write it down .Revelation is the last chapter in the book.
Catholisicim like Judaism has developed their own written source of faith as a law of the fathers.(oral traditions of corrupted mankind)
They say scripture is part of their what they call Sacred Devine Tradition of the fathers .But in doing so make all things written in the law and prophets (sola scriptura) without effect. No man can serve two teaching Masters .
CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. SECOND EDITION. # 80 "
Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture, then, are bound closely together, and communicate one with the other. For both of them, flowing out from the
same divine well-spring, come together in
some fashion to form one thing, and move towards the same goal."
We have the whole loving law with nothing missing by which a person could know God more intimately.
Violating the warnings is likened to editing (Plagiarism)
Plagiarism is the representation of another author 's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions as one's own original work.
In that way it violates the first commandment not to have others gods in the likeness of men before our invisible God.
