II Peter 1:20-21
II Peter 1:20: “Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.”
In other words, we are not at liberty to interpret the Bible to mean whatever we want it to mean. We cannot assign it arbitrary allegorical interpretations. These are not our words; they are God’s words. We are to listen and obey, not edit and rewrite.
