END OF THE END DAYS TOLD OF TO BE...
SPIRITUALLY INSPIRED...
'The love those people have is not a warm, living love for God and His truth and His people.
Rather, it is the love of self and the love of money. Divine words describe those whose love
for God, Christ, and the saints is only in pretense, not in reality.
They do all they do in a religious way from self-love and to selfish ends. Their aim is to gain
glory and applause from men or to use religion to gain something for themselves.
They do nothing for the glory of God, the honor of Christ, or the good of others.'

To keep us from accepting a counterfeit Bible, God has warned us of those who change it. The primary culprits include Satan, hardened sinners, heretics, false prophets, false teachers, and false apostles, along with their followers (ignorant as they may be). The war on the Word of God began with the devil in the Garden of Eden.
To practice deceit, falsehood, and treachery either by word or action. It is the exact opposite of truth. The sanctity of truth is fundamental in biblical teaching since it is based on the nature and character of God (Num 23:19; 1 Sam 15:29; Rom 3:4; Titus 1:2; Heb 6:18). Therefore, to despise truth is to despise God, and the Scriptures treat this topic with profound seriousness.
The Scriptures bear universal, consistent, and clear testimony to the absolute sin of lying. It can never be right to lie because it is contrary to the nature of God. However, there are difficulties to be reckoned with in Scripture such as the lack of condemnation of untruths in certain circumstances, the use made of lies in the fulfilling of God's purposes, the approval of the use of partial truth, and the appearance of God as being the sponsor of falsehood in connection with inspiring false prophets with erroneous messages.
It must be explicitly stated that God does not approve or need methods that are alien to the integrity of his character to fulfill his purposes. However, God by his sovereignty in his work with sinful humankind, is able to accommodate such lapses and still fulfill his purposes. Never, however, is lying a prerequisite to fulfilling the divine plan.
Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual but as worldly—mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere men? (1 Corinthians 3:1–3)

"Cunning, baffling and powerful the adversary lurks within the
mirror to bring a darkness to the heart of the man-mind with worldly foolishness
which brings cause of not knowing or entering the Kingdom of God."
-And denial of truth the adversary being the master in charge of a life...here in the now."

"Warnings appear subtle, yet of profound significance, bringing cause of being
completely ignored, and this being a grave error. Arranging historical history has been
passed down by humans, and human minds often in fear of the unknown, tend to put
forth pretentious authority, and this bringing cause of inventing worldly intellectual safety
features to pacify their own fear of truth, often more terrifying than falsehood.
~You shall not bear a false report; do not join your hand with a wicked man to be a malicious witness.
Guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge”— Therefore I hate every false way. ~

"By no means is this to judge nor offend. Obviously, there are reasons of the events being witnessed,
and has it not been told of a great falling away from God! Each can come to their own conclusion."
" But we are limited in our understanding and often hindered by pride.
We need the Holy Spirit to help us to think correctly, lest we distort the Scriptures."
(2 Peter 3:16).

The Bible portrays God as a consuming fire. I believe the unsaved are burned by his Presence because they didn't prepare to meet him.
