Re: "Promoting Reading the Publication of the Ministry Among the Saints"
The concept of needing "the interpreted Word" from "the minister of the Word" came from Watchman Nee

It was restated by Witness Lee

And in recent years, I witnessed "the blenders", coworkers, elders, and saints in TLR teaching that "the interpreted Word" is the LSM publications, and they are better than the Bible itself for guiding your Christian life and "church life".
That is one of the things that caused me to run, and run fast from TLR.
Paul considered that he was completing the word of God http://biblehub.com/colossians/1-25.htm
John and Old Testament prophets gave severe warnings about adding to or taking away from God's Word
http://biblehub.com/revelation/22-19.htm
That's enough for me to steal clear of LSM "interpreted word" claims, and warn others not to "buy it". Read the Bible yourself, rely on the Holy Spirit first, commentaries second.
