I like your point 4 about false prophecies. My response to that reasoning (on Apollos) would have been that there can never be any "Priscilla" or "Aquila" to come to the aid of the happless Governing Body and put them straight, because they accept direction/correction from NOBODY! They feel that God is guiding them collectively as representatives of the Slave Class, and that their words represent absolute and unquestionable truth. In that sense, they're nothing like Apollos, who humbly and meekly accepted correction when it became clear that he had a slightly wrong take on things. In fact, I wish they could be more like him!! It would make our work a lot easier.
