Was he not showing words that Westcott and Hort removed in their text? Maybe I missed his point.

Where do you get the idea that we're defending changing the text of scripture, or making allowances for some to do it? Reread the start of this thread. The question was in reference to what
John was talking about at the close of his book. I think I addressed clearly why I believe that
John was referring only to the book that he was writing.
I was in no way suggesting that "you can pick and choose all throughout the Bible, but not in Revelation..."
I believe the commands to leave God's words untouched in Deut. and Prov. etc., and I would never condone ANYONE adding/subtracting/altering the words of God.
