Add Thou Not!

Part 5:

“Non-biblical Names”

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Holy_bible.jpgIn today’s Christendom, it is not uncommon to hear Bible teachers make the hollow claim to that old Reformation mantra, “Sola Scriptura”!

.

Yes, many churches, and ministries confidently maintain their purity of doctrine…“We follow the Bible and the Bible only!”

.

And yet, in most cases, this is simply not true!

“EVERY WORD OF GOD IS PURE…ADD THOU NOT!”

Proverbs 30:6

.

You see, one of the great errors in today’s Christian community is the common practice of concocting theological jargon which are found nowhere in Scripture.

.

In other words, there are certain church doctrines which sadly have no origin nor foundation in Scripture, and yet are propped up and supported by establishing some man-made theological name, which lends to them a certain air of credibility.

.

.

.

.

.

THE BRAIN-CHILD OF DARBY, SCOFIELD AND OTHERS!

.

For instance, one well-accepted doctrine in today’s Christian world is the so-called “Rapture”.

.

But the fact is, the Bible makes no mention of this theologian-derived name which is used as a substitute for the true biblical name, “The Return of the Lord”.

.

But in attempt to establish two separate returns of Jesus, this unbiblical name was fabricated by several theologians of the past, to give impetus to this notion that Christ would return not once, but twice.

.

And the sad fact is, it has worked, to a high degree! And coupled together with a few ambiguous Bible verses, the parishioners in most churches today, have fully accepted this heresy, the brain-child of Darby, Scofield and perhaps one or two other false teachers from decades past.

.

Well, these two men are rarely ever mentioned, nor given any credit for this name, “The Rapture”, in a veiled attempt to deceive church-goers into believing that this unbiblical name is actually of Divine origin! But it’s not!

.

Yes, for some reason, by simply fabricating a theological name, and repeating that name day and night, via the many television and radio ministries now airing, this false doctrine has gained a strong foothold in today’s apostate church-world.

“BUT HE IS A JEW WHICH IS ONE INWARDLY”

(see Romans 2:28, 29, Galatians 3:7 & 6:16, Ephesians 2:11-15, etc…)

.

Well, the so-called “Rapture” is just one of a number of theologian-fabricated names. Another name, “Replacement Theology” is likewise a totally non-biblical name concocted to establish a false teaching which has absolutely no biblical support. It too has been fabricated for the very purpose of establishing a heresy which has no foundation in Scripture.

.

And being constantly repeated, it has also become well-accepted in today’s churches.

.

.

.

.

.

“ADD THOU NOT UNTO HIS WORDS!”

Proverbs 30:6

.

But the Bible warns against “adding to” or “diminishing ought” from Scripture. (see Deuteronomy 4:2 & Proverbs 30:5, 6 & Revelation 22:18, 19)

.

And the fact is, if the Bible student would always insist on eliminating these man-made names from any and all theological discussions, the proponents and adherents of those church heresies would then be forced to defend them using the Bible only, which they simply cannot do!

.

.

“COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE!”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tissot_The_Flight_of_the_Prisoners.jpg

Revelation 18:4

.

This is just one more reason why God is now commanding His people to, “Come out of her (Babylon) My people, lest you partake of her sins and receive of her plagues”. Revelation 18:4 We must cease to partake of this sin of adding unbiblical names which are used to prop up false doctrines.

.

This is just one of the many sins of Babylon! And the teachers in the Babylonish church-world are not about to give these heresies up!

“FLEE TO THE MOUNTAINS!”

Mark 13:14 & Luke 21:21

.Constellation- Woman of Revelation 12 flees to the mountains Mark 13:14

Yes, the end-time exodus out of the apostate church-world has begun. And God has provided an abundance of “rivers and streams of (living) waters” in this very day when the “towers (churches) fall”. (parenthetical comments by Editor)

.

And every true child of God can claim the great and precious promise that, “(heavenly) bread shall be given him; his (living) waters shall be sure. Thine eyes shall see the King in His beauty” Isaiah 33:16, 17. (parenthetical comments by Editor)

“WHEN FOR THE TIME, YE OUGHT TO BE TEACHERS!”

Hebrews 5:12http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USMC-06831.jpg

.

It is our duty to achieve teacher-status as Hebrews 5:12 exhorts us concerning our daily Bible study, that we will no longer be dependent on today’s apostate Bible teachers to tell us what we must believe…“But the anointing which ye have received of Him abideth in you, and YE NEED NOT THAT ANY MAN TEACH YOU: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in Him.” 1st John 2:27

“FLEE…AND DELIVER EVERY MAN HIS SOUL!”

Jeremiah 51:6http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis19-17.jpg

.

It truly is the day in which every child of the King must, “cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; To go into the clefts of the ragged rocks (God’s Word), for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.” Isaiah 2:20, 21 (parenthetical comment by Editor)

.

Yes, we are now living in that fearful hour when God’s people are commanded to, “Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this is the time of the LORD’S vengeance; He will render unto her a recompense.” Jeremiah 51:6

WHY IS THIS WOMAN RUNNING SO FAST?

.

(THE FLEEING WOMAN OF REVELATION 12: (The Fleeing Woman of Revelation 12 sketch above can be seen in winter in the northern sky. It is Ursa Major, AKA The Great Bear, and her right leg and her torso is commonly known as the The Big Dipper . She appears like this in the early fall in the pre-dawn hours, and is running westward. The pathway with Bible books of course, are the artist’s embellishment)

THE WINTER CONSTELLATIONS

.

“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman….and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:  And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon….And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon….And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness….And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.” Rev. 21:1-3, 14, 15

.

This Woman of Revelation 12 is definitely fleeing to the mountains . As you can see in this sketch below, The Dragon of Revelation 12 is spewing out his water of falsehoods: false gospels, false ideologies, various temptations, false brethren who will embrace her with the poisonous wine of the The Great Harlot of Babylon. These are what comprise this wave of water coming forth from the Dragon’s mouth. (see “Flood Waters of Satan”)

.

 

WINTER CONSTELLATIONS-SEEN IN FALL: This sketch to the right is how this constellation group appears in the eastern sky in fall. This is the four primary constellations of the Winter Constellations. They can be seen in this position, in the late fall above the eastern horizon. The Woman of Revelation 12 is commonly called Ursa Major or The Big Dipper and appears in the northOrion the Soldier is the at the bottom is to the south of the Woman. The The Dragon of Revelation Constellation’s mouth isThe Hyades Cluster, and the tip of his tail is Pleiades, and his Wave of Water is primarily the Auriga constellation. The Glorious Horse Constellation  head is of Perseus Constellation and his rear end is Cassiopeia Constellation.
