Angus Buchan – A ‘False Bible’ in 366 Days for Men
Angus Buchan – A ‘False Bible’ in 366 Days for Men
It never ceases to amaze me. Angus Buchan has now released a Bible for men, yes you heard me a BIBLE. CUM Book stores description says;

Key Scripture passages, from Genesis to Revelation, will enable readers to gain a better understanding of God’s Word and His love for us.

So…
Angus Buchan offers the essence of the real Bible to men in his bible? Really? Is Angus Buchan’s bible inspired? Why did Angus Buchan feel the need to shorten / take from God’s Bible and write his own and tell people that it’s just as good as the real thing, in fact “gain a better understanding of God’s Word” when it does not even come close.
I’ve been told this is a Devotional. What is a Devotional? Devotionals are not biblical, in fact:
Christian devotional literature (also called devotionals or Christian living literature) is religious writing that is neither doctrinal nor theological, but designed for individuals to read for their personal edification and spiritual formation. Theologian Karl Holl has suggested that devotional literature came into full development at the time of Pietism during the second half of the 17th century [Emphasis added]— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_devotional_literature
A Devotional is a direct attack from Satan. Devotionals are based on the writers personal experience of scripture and their personal spiritual ideas regarding scripture – in other words: their interpretation. There is one gospel, one Jesus Christ, one interpretation of scripture. Devotionals on the other hand give the writer ample leeway to play around with scripture and render it to their own interpretation. A devotional is nothing but a story telling book based on passages of scripture made to look biblical.
Devotionals are not doctrinal or theological and are Roman Catholic. (See here: Angus – It’s Time to Unite All Faiths under Rome)
The Word of God was there in the beginning, the Word was with God, and the Word was fully God. The Word became Flesh. The Word is Jesus Christ…
John 1:1,14
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was fully God 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Hebrews 1:2
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Psalms 119:89
89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
Proverbs 30:5
5 Every word of God is purified; he is like a shield for those who take refuge in him.
Psalms 119:140
140 Your word is absolutely pure, and your servant loves it!
2 Timothy 3:16
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
“Angus has pulled out key Scriptures for the reader to gain a better under standing of God’s Word?” Really? How is this possible when every verse in the Bible needs to be read in CONTEXT within the Bible itself in order for the Bible to be understood correctly.
If you take away from the bible you are TAKING AWAY from Jesus Christ who IS the WORD.
The Bible says that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of ones own private interpretation, the Holy Spirit helps us interpret the Word of God and within the Bible there is only one Truth – not many different interpretations – yet Angus Buchan has collected key scriptures within his bible (devotional) that will help one understand the bible better, the problem is Angus Buchan gives us his interpretation.
2 Peter 1:20
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
God says you are not to add too or TAKE AWAY anything from His Word, because you alter it’s meaning. Angus’s has disobeyed God and done just that.
Deuteronomy 4:2
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.
Only Satan would take anything away from the Word of God, so that people can not be saved.
Luke 8:11-12
11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
“Angus bible provides a concise overview of key messages of the entire Bible.” Really? So Angus’s Bible is better than God’s bible as it provides KEY messages for the reader! God’s Bible on the other hand IS THE KEY MESSAGE – one can not begin to pluck out verses and create a summarized version of smaller key messages and think you are doing the Church a favour. You are doing a gross injustice to the church and leading people straight to hell.
Proverbs 30:6
6 Add thou not unto his words, lest He reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Revelation 22:18
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:
“Angus provides short inspirational thoughts to encourage daily reading of the Bible?” Or is that his bible? Which bible are we speaking about here…
Why does a man have to encourage you to read your Bible? That should be the work of the Holy Spirit (if He abides in you).
Here, Paul reminds the followers of Jesus Christ how they had welcomed the message of Jesus Christ with much joy given to them by the Holy Ghost in spite of severe suffering. And John mentions that the reason by which we know that Christ lives in us is by the Spirit that God gave us (1 John 3:24). How could the Holy Spirit’s presence in our lives demonstrate to us that Christ lives in us? Well we perceive His communication and His interaction with us and He is the One that edges us to read the Word of God as He is the One who illuminates scripture for us.
1 Thessalonians 1:6
6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:
What Angus Buchan has done is effectively created a new gospel in his ‘bible’ because it’s not the whole council of God.
Ephesians 4:14
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
1 Timothy 4:7
7 But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
A little error destroys the truth completely. Angus’s bible is nothing but leven as it does not contain the whole Truth.
Galatians 5:9
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
The Word of God tells you that you are to study the Bible, rightly dividing the Word of Truth, but this can’t be done in Angus’s bible because it does not contain the Truth.
2 Timothy 2:15
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
The Word of God says that greedy men will come and make money out of you of creating and selling FALSE BIBLES.
2 Peter 2:3
3 And through covetousness [Greed] shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
“Angus’s bible is an essential resource for spiritual growth?” Really? So Angus’s bible has now replaced God’s Word as the meat for our spiritual growth.
Man shall not live on bread alone, but the bible says, BY EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the mouth of God. Angus Buchan has removed most of the words from the Bible to create his own devotional version that is as dead as a door nail. People will read this bible and still be hungry.
Matthew 4:2-4
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
The Word of God is LIVING and ACTIVE – Jesus Christ is ALIVE. Angus’s bible is not the Word of God and is therefore dead and can’t produce any growth what-so-ever. Angus’s false bible is blunt and can’t judge.
Hebrews 4:12
12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing even to the point of dividing soul from spirit, and joints from marrow; it is able to judge the desires and thoughts of the heart.
The Word of God is the helmet of Salvation and the Sword of the Spirit, Angus’s false bible is neither.
Ephesians 6:17
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Angus’s bible will strengthen ever man’s faith and inspire them to live dedicated lives to God. Really? So Angus’s ‘word’ has now replaced the Word of God. Angus’s bible will inspire people to live dedicated lives to God, instead of listening and being obedient to the Holy Spirit.
The Word of God is a lamp unto peoples feet and a light along that narrow path, it does not say that EXTRA BIBLICAL books are a lamp and light to people.
Psalms 119:105
105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
False teachers have crept in to seduce the masses, they will create ‘false bibles’ and the people will read these fables instead of the Word of God and follow a false Christ. The Word of God says that because of their evil doctrines and manners, God has a horrible punishment prepared for them.
Jude 1:4
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Dear Amanda
You said “Too many links…sorry, but I don’t have time.”
I knew you would say that. 😀 You have time to listen to a false teacher David Owuor but you just don’dont have time to read an article handed to you on a silver platter. Here I will put 1 link for you to make it super easy for you. You will stand before God one day and He will remind you of this moment.
Read this article where Angus prays and says he believes in the Holy Catholic Church: https://www.discerningtheworld.com/2017/04/19/angus-buchan-time-unite-faiths-under-rome/
Angus Buchan called Rodney Howard-Browne his brother, as in ‘brother in Christ’. What an insult to Jesus Christ. Do you think the Apostle Paul went around calling false teachers ‘brothers in Christ’? No.
Looks like you will do anything, think anything and say anything to believe in Angus Buchan.
When you go visit the Pope (by invitation only) Amanda you are required to kiss the Pope’s ring Amanda…in other words you acknowledge him as the vicar of Christ and the Catholic church as your Mother church. Graham Power did not go to preach the truth to the Pope, but instead to discuss the ‘transformation’ of Africa to the Roan CAtholic church via the false unholy spirit that is spreading like FIRE and generally comes like a whirlwind. Here is another link explaining the difference between the Holy Spirit and the false unholy spirit. https://www.discerningtheworld.com/2012/06/23/the-biblical-holy-spirit-vs-the-false-unholy-spirit-of-fire/
You said “one was about asking God about praying in tongues and a whirlwind, but I won’t go into detail, I won’t bother to cast my pearls where it will only be trampled.”
Matthew 7:6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs or throw your pearls before pigs; otherwise they will trample them under their feet and turn around and tear you to pieces.”
Jesus uses dogs and pigs as representative of those who would ridicule, reject, and blaspheme the gospel once it is presented to them.
Thanks for insinuating we are pigs, and blaspheming the Holy Spirit because we believe the Word of God over your ‘experience’… what a nice person you are. I can clearly see the spirit by which you operate. You are not presenting the gospel to us, you are telling us about an EXPERIENCE you had and you have no proof other than your words that go against the gospel. Big difference. You asked God for something that He tells you in His Word has ceased. Do you think He is going to go against His Word? No. But someone else listened to your unbiblical request and gave you want your ‘wicked heart’ desired.
No one was more charismatic than the Apostle Paul, yet God revealed to him that those sign gifts were going to cease. Here is the gospel Amanda:
1 Corinthians 13:8 “Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.”
Your infatuation with this ‘jet’ and now ‘helicopter’ is very funny.
Oh my goodness. So much distortion of my words. I don’t believe “in” Angus. I believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and Him alone do I serve. You guys spread lies regarding Angus’ supposed “jet & helicopter”, that’s why I keep mentioning it when you try to be dismissive of it.
I speak in love but you don’t. No I did not make up lies about Rodney Howard-Browne. I do see your sarcasm.
How insulting to question my experience. I did not say a whirlwind was the Holy Spirit falling as on the day of Pentecost. Again you lie about me and that’s why I said I won’t cast my pearls for it indeed got trampled even though I did not even expand on what happened.
It is my choice to click and read or not. I have read enough and don’t care for anymore on your site because even here I discern hatred especially from you Tom.
Angus is not preaching another gospel. He preaches Jesus Christ as Son of God, crucified, resurrected. How is that another gospel?
But anyway, now you turn against me and my experience. 🙂 My God is very much alive and active in my life, even when He is quiet. I know very well what Jesus meant by the casting pearls etc. I even made a verse pic about it the other day on my Christian page. But here it was certainly trampled on. I operate by the Holy Spirit. So do not grieve the Holy Spirit in me. I too stand on the word of God. I trust in no man (or woman).
Holy Spirit wants me to stop now, so I will let you go in peace. Bye/
Amanda, this seems to apply to you. And please take note, I am quoting this with much love and affection.
You wrote:
Yes, and so does Pope Francis and the Roman Catholic Church and God calls them “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.” (Revelation 17:5).
Oh dearie me, I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have quoted Revelation 17:5 because it is so UNLOVING to call anyone a harlot, let alone a church who preaches Jesus Christ as Son of God, crucified, and resurrected. Please forgive me.
https://www.catholic.org/clife/jesus/webelieve.php
Before you leave in the spirit of the “Holy Spirit” and in peace, would you mind telling us how you were saved?
Dear Amanda
My my but you can only lie. I quoted IOL.co.za regarding a jet, no helicopter was ever mentioned by us – you mentioned the helicopter 1st time here. You think everyone is stupid and can’t read. You can try blacken our name through lies because WE DISCERN by the Holy Spirit that Angus Buchan through his own words (see video below) is part and parcel of the Roman Catholic Church. We do not hate anyone, you hate us for discerning the truth. You are using this silly jet and helicopter ‘lie’ to hide from the truth that Angus Buchan is Catholic. You say you follow Jesus Christ and follow Him only, yet it seems you will protect Angus, and falsely accuse us instead.
Ohhhhh lookie what I found…. 🙂
If you don’t want to read, please LISTEN to Angus Buchan in his OWN WORDS. It’s a very short video, it really wont waste any of your time. You can hear Most Reverend Archbishop Angus Buchan say he believes in the HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH at 10 seconds into the video, and he gets thousands upon thousands of people to pray after him. Will you pray this prayer with Angus, Amanda? Wink/

You said “How insulting to question my experience. I did not say a whirlwind was the Holy Spirit falling as on the day of Pentecost.”
We are not insulting your experience we are QUESTIONING the validity of your experience. Bible says we are to test everything does it not?
1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
You originally said “one was about asking God about praying in tongues and a whirlwind”.
So if the Holy Spirit was not the whirlwind according to your words, you said; “I did not say a whirlwind was the Holy Spirit”, who or what was the whirlwind then?
You said the “Holy Spirit wants me to stop now, so I will let you go in peace” Are you sure it’s the Holy Spirit and not another spirit – who doesn’t want you to see the truth?
We love you so much Amanda that we are willing to argue with you till the cows come home to show you the TRUTH (that you steadfastly refuse to believe).
By the way, we don’t expect an apology from you for all your lies and false accusations against us ok? :hug:
