Subject: special revelation vs general revelation |
Bible Note: Radioman2 and Hank, Excellent insights on this topic of continued revelation. My biggest challenge to it is that SCRIPTURE does in fact speak against this (Heb.1:1-2), and the VERY subjective nature it entails. We are in fact putting "special revelation" on par with the Word of God when this practice is embraced. I certainly KNOW that the Bible, the Word of God is truth (John 17:17) but am not at all comfortable with so-and-sos' "revelation from God". It is simply too subjective. This also begs the question: If God has spoken to us through His Word, and His Word is truth, why do we seek or need any further revelation? Is the Bible alone not enough? As Jude writes "...I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." ( Jude 3) Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
