Jws.:. Does Judge Rutherford’s Flash Of Light In 1935 Indicate That He Was A Bona Fide Prophet?

Did Rutherford calculate this date from the scriptures using some cockamamie formula? It is my understanding that he did not. In this case, he received a “flash of light,” and magically knew that, starting from that time, the gates of Heaven were closed for good. Of course, the fact that there were more than 144,000 JWs in the org at that point may have been a clue that something was wrong, and perhaps an impetus/necessity for establishing new doctrine … you think?
If God spoke to Rutherford using Holy Spirit, then that makes him a prophet. Thereafter, when his predictions didn’t come true, that also made him a … dare I say it?!!
Jehovah’s Witnesses, please help us clear this matter up. We know that you like to use scripture to justify everything, but you may have to work “off script” this time, unless you have some of those handy stock answers on file. It seems like this one would have been “asked and answered” already, but it never hurts to bring in new blood rework the classics.
