We enlarge an experience or just continue to talk in order to have people pay attention to us. Generally, we are not terribly careful about our words. However, when it comes to repeating or working with the words of God, we need to be very careful. We must not add a word or take one away from what God has spoken (Proverbs 30:6). Words that are added or removed can change the tone and meaning of a sentence. God's words are holy.

James wrote that the tongue is very hard to control (James 3:8). It is bad enough when we err with our words or experiences, but when it comes to that which God has spoken, there is no room allowed for error. His words are pure and holy. Anyone who would dare to change them is in danger of being removed from the roll call of the Book of Life (Revelation 22:19).

    I have been noticing more self-serving preachers in this world today. And so many churchs with unbelievable names makes me think that most preachers teach what the congrgation wants to hear and not what our Father Yahweh commands us to know. And in this case.. ignorance is not bliss. Satan never sleeps! May Yahweh bless us and keep us. Shalom and shalom.

    This is so frusterating because I know that scriptures do get taken out of context. When I talk about a subject I will pull out the Bible and read the scripture. When refering to the scripture I am talking about I will read the whole chapter to my listener to get their point of view. I want to know if we understand it the same. If not, then it takes God our Father's help to make the point clear in truth and in context.
