>> Rev 22:18

"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:"

Well, that's certainly a novel use of that verse! Sorry, but the issue is over calling Christ by a name you allege is unbiblical... not adding stuff to the Book of Revelations. Unless you care to explain it to me better, it seems like you've got a complete nonsequitor.

Perhaps you'd care to explore the bible and consider how God feels about His Name. After doing that ask yourself if man really should be messing with His Name. Giving God new names is the same as adding to the scriptures, it is a sin that is specifically mentioned in the bible. What is worse, using God's name lightly or giving God a diffent name? Go call your boss by some name you made up or by some title that you've decided to give him and see how well that works.

But it is only RC's who go and give Mary a thousand pompus names, even more than God has given His Son, and who go and rename God at your whim and who go and take God's names and apply them to your Pope and see nothing wrong with any of this. Certainly those responsible for such acts will burn and what shall we say of those led astray.
