-Removed-Revelation was the last book of the Holy Bible that was written and the admonishment you’re referring to are the last words in that book.
Sounds pretty straightforward to this hombre.
Though I would add it appears the admonishment refers specifically to the book of Revelation and not the Bible as a whole.
Here it is, and the concluding verses of Revelation:
“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.
He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”
(Revelation 22:18-21)
@pb1022 saidSo you adding “billions” to Revelation 14:10 is a big No-No.

No way around that.

-Removed-You have to twist so much to say this; no one I know who has ever read the Bible once says such things. If they get their theology out of movies or other works of fiction, maybe, but those who do that I would not count as 'the church' and being happy about it is also something that only comes between your ears, not reality.
Getting their theology out of works of fiction is as bad as looking at scripture and denying what it says on the topic.
-Removed-You also keep getting bent out of shape that Christ is the one who rules over even Hell and stands in judgment and condemns those outside of Him; it is difficult to know what you think, given the arguments you make about that. The scripture is very clear all of us have sinned, we all have fallen short, there is none righteous, not one, that the world stands condemned by God as its usual place before Him, and it is Christ who saves from God's wrath which is coming, and those that reject that salvation stands before God sinners condemned for their sins.
-Removed-Why did you omit the verses on either side of Revelation 14:10 that describe who is in hell and falsely claim it was “billions” of “non-Christians” and not Satan worshippers who accepted the mark of the beast?
Clearly you must have known what you wrote about Jesus Christ overseeing the “torture” of “billions” of “non-Christians” was false.
Why did you write it, if not to trash the Name of Jesus Christ?

@kevin-eleven saidHe falsely represented that quote from Revelation 14:10 by saying Jesus Christ was watching over “billions” of non-Christians burning in hell, while the verses immediately before and after that verse make clear the people in hell are Satan worshippers who received Satan’s mark - not simply non-Christians.

It’s hard to believe his misrepresentation was an accident given the correct info was in the verses immediately before and immediately after the verse he quoted.
It was a very shameful thing to do and not at all indicative of a Christ follower, in PB’s opinion.
@pb1022 saidI think too many people read Revelations/The Apocalypse of John too literally.

It's probably a coded political allegory, a coded mystical allegory, or the first widely disseminated trip report.
