Will there be a new revelation book?

    Since the entire book of Revelation was pretty much fulfilled by Rutherford giving a few talks at some district conventions and the release of what would now be considered apostate teachings and 'old light', and now that Jesus return, the appointing of the faithful slave, etc, is all a future event, I think they will have to soon order all kingdomhalls to trash their revelation books.

    I'd bet if the WT even lasts that long, a new revelation book within the next 5 years.

    We need a new everything. The organized book, reasoning book, revelation book, insight on the scriptures all contain old light that is way beyond its best before date and has gone rancid.

    hoser - true, at some point they may even change the name from Jehovah's Witnesses to "The Governing Body's Witnesses".

    According to my sources there's know one there with enough bible knowledge to write a revelation book.

    They don't need knowledge these days - they just make up any old incoherent shit!

    Their knowledge comes from taking qualified educated quotes from different scholars and twisting them to fit their Cult writings.

    Whatever they print thats new is just TRASH TRASH TRASH. Just don't throw it in the trash-- put it in the recycling bin so that it can be used for a good purpose in its second life.

    LOL, it doesn't matter that the older books don't make sense any more- they never did! And doctrine is unimportant in a fundamentalist religion- the only thing that matters is that members feel a sense of security from the fellowship and their leaders. Also, writing a verse-by-verse commentary on the Bible is risky- there will always be verses that can't be explained: where we no longer know what the Bible writer was referring to. It's much easier for a religion to write a book based around doctrine, and cherry-pick verses to suit.

    They don't seem to have the quality of writers these days to even produce good steaming bull***t.

    At one time, Mad Freddie Franz and his acolytes like Bob Pevy, who had a big part in the Rev book writing, were quite good at Pseudo-profundity, the present lot would struggle with what that means.
