I really am surprised by your comments here. Are you sure you want to say this? The JW have their own heretical version of scripture which no Christian scholar would approve of. The Mormons have a 3rd book of the Bible based on Joseph Smith's unique "sightings." The Recovery has its "interpreted" word based on Lee's writings. None of their errors are based on scripture.
I'm all for time-tested teachings which also also pass the test of scripture. When in conflict, however, antiquity alone can not rule over the Bible.
