This sounds familiar. " His words are not accepted as the law and the prophets. They are accepted as more than that. The Witnesses rely on what the Bible says. But they count on Judge Rutherford to tell them what it means by what it says. The latter role is obviously more important."
The GB/FDS are not infallible, not inspired, but they are the channel for interpreting God's word. They tell Jws what the Bible means.... If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!
