Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. (2 John 9)
The Word of God is clear, sufficient, and unchanging. John warns us that anyone who goes beyond Scripture, anyone who believes or implies that they have improved upon the Bible "does not have God."
When you hear someone say, "The Bible says _________ BUT I think there is a better way" . . . run away from that person and teaching! They are leading. you astray!
We are to love God's unchanging, dependable, timeless, and beautiful word. God does not change. In a fickle world, how refreshing to know a God who does not change according to the whims of man! We conform to Him . . . He does not conform to us.
