Other Revelation Interpretations
by maputo95 inhas anyone read other works intrepretating "revelation" such as done by rc, baptist or lutheran scholars and also by humanists.
the mark of a cult, i feel, are restrictions put upon the membership to only read their own literature.
they also exalt their position which is usually: "only we have the right interpretation because only we have the "truth", consequently jws will not read other interpretations of scripture as they believe these to be "satanic".
