You make a good point Drake. The real problem comes when one of the interpreters claims his interpretation is "recovered truth". And here we are over 20 years since the man's death and the official, published leadership of the Local Church refuses to allow other voices in the movement. This is the kind of thing you expect among the Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses, and not a Christian ministry that purports to be orthodox and biblical.
