Revelations 22

Using Revelations 22 as grounds for denouncing the legitimacy of the Book of Mormon is piously ignorant. These three facts revert such efforts:

1. Deuteronomy 4:2. According to that passage and using the same sort of reasoning used with Revelations 22 to disprove Mormonism, the entire New Testament is an invalid addition to the Book.

2. When the Book of Revelations was first transcribed, the New Testament did not exist in a compound form. The first known selection of a canon was not until 70 years after the death of John and it is not the same canon that exists today.

3. 2 and 3 John were written after Revelations.
