Editing Yehowists (section)

==Revered books==
Yehowists believe that the text of the Christian (and Jewish) [[Bible]] was distorted by Satan. Although they agree that the Bible contains some truths, they believe its text is so distorted that Yehowists do not use it at all, believing that the reader will not be able to tell the truth from later Satan's distortions and additions. Although Ilyin's works contain numerous references to the Bible, members of the Yehowist society are not allowed to read it or the scriptures of other religions. Yehowists believe the Ilyin-edited version of [[Book of Revelation]], which they call the ''Book from Heaven'', to be the holiest book. This book is considered secret and available to members of the Yehowist society only. Apart from the Book from Heaven, Ilyin's works are also regarded as holy writings. They are divided into several types depending on the creation period and purpose. Some books written by Ilyin are considered to be out of date, intended mainly for members of the organization. Works written during the initial period are known to be materials for distribution, which are distributed to propagate Ilyin's teaching. All works by Ilyin are reproduced by Yehowists both in printed and handwritten forms, with the old Russian spelling kept to avoid distortions when reproducing them. Below is a list of booklet titles:

# Universal Theological Truth
# Inviting all mortal people to become immortal
# Second address by Messenger of YEHOWAH
# Disproving all religions

Handing out booklets is the only allowed method of propagation of the teaching; verbal preaching is prohibited. Nikolai Ilyin prohibited his followers from preaching verbally based on the prophecy in Isaiah 41-25 "...he will do it the way that no one will hear him preaching a sermon nor breaking a bruised reed in the street".<ref>[https://svetoch.org/en/ Universal Theological Truth]</ref> In addition, preaching may easily lead to debate with members of other religions. Preaching is also believed to have the possibility of distorting the message. Booklets are handed out to all people who are willing to take them.
