	Talk:Continuous revelation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		But besides that, fundamentalists do not get uptight merely over revelation that contradicts earlier revelation; they would be very reluctant to expand their canon.
		If they claim revelation, they would be unlikely to give it status equal to anything in the Bible.
		And yes, I agree with you that for most Christians the Biblical canon is closed; further revelation would be expected to build on top of what is already revealed in the Bible, not add to or replace that foundation.

	CONTINUOUS REVELATION FACTS AND INFORMATION
		In general, continuous revelation or continuing revelation is a theological belief or position that God continues to reveal divine principles or commandments to humanity.
		In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), continuous revelation is the principle that God or his divine agents still continue to communicate to mankind.
		They also believe that certain individuals are able to transmit revelations from God in the form of prophecy, words of knowledge, and speaking in tongues and interpretation of tongues.

	MORMON CENTRAL - MORMON HISTORY - RESTORATION HISTORY - RESTORATION SCRIPTURES - JOSEPH SMITH - MORMONISM
		As proof of their being led by continuous revelation, Mormons assert that their Church alone is governed by living apostles and prophets.
		A final text bearing upon the question of continued revelation is Rev. 19:10, "for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." On the basis of this text Mormons hold that anyone who has a genuine testimony to Jesus also enjoys the "spirit of prophecy," which they then equate with modern revelation.
		In other words, at the time of the revelation South Carolina had already rebelled, both sides had armed themselves for war, and the general feeling was that the nation was on the brink of a bloody civil conflict.

	BD Revelation
		Divine revelation is one of the grandest concepts and principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ, for without it, man could not know of the things of God and could not be saved with any degree of salvation in the eternities.
		Continuous revelation from God to his saints, through the Holy Ghost or by other means, such as vision, dreams, or visitations, makes possible daily guidance along true paths and leads the faithful soul to complete and eternal salvation in the celestial kingdom.
		It is the making known of divine truth by communication with the heavens, and consists not only of revelation of the plan of salvation to the Lord’s prophets, but also a confirmation in the hearts of the believers that the revelation to the prophets is true.

	Revelation
		Revelation, not as in THE revelation at Sinai, but revelation as a human process of having things revealed before us (the opposite process of realization, which is self-imposed) is a crucial mechanism through which we as Jews, can identify with God and our people.
		Revelation is not, as some claim, spirituality, nor is it a change in a state of human consciousness.
		Revelation was the phenomenal, awesome occurrence of the Divine interacting with the mortal world that He had created, and providing guidance and morality to a people who had just left a culture of immorality and strife.

	Reachout Trust - LDS Mormon - What about Continuing Revelation?
		From the first vision to the present day continuing revelation is understood to be the lifeblood of the church.
		Over 99% of what they term modern revelation was given within the first thirty years of Mormon history from the first vision in 1820 (depending on which of six disparate accounts you subscribe to) to section 136, given to Brigham Young in 1847.
		In July of 1831, in a "revelation" beginning, "Hearken, O ye elders of my church, saith the Lord your God...", Missouri was identified as "the land which I have appointed and consecrated for the gathering of the saints", Zion (Doctrine and Covenants 57:1-2).

		If only because someone else said, equally truly, that the law is an ass, and I would not want your highest accolade to rest upon your alleged prowess at designing donkeys, I would want to add that the artist, servant and master of imagination, is the first and finest theologian of the race.
		These special, miraculous divine revelations are then thought to be conveyed in the first instance to distinctive individuals or groups, thereafter to be spread by word of mouth to other members of the race.
		And it is all natural - in the Aristotelian sense of nature, physis, as form which has within itself the source of change, that is, of development and death and out of death new life.

		These precautions are not meant to imply that God ceases to enlarge the revelation of himself and spiritual truth to succeeding generations.
		Revelation is always the product of the action of God in the life of man. God has an infinite number of ways to do this.
		Revelation must always be given in the language, forms of knowledge, and philosophical concepts which are meaningful to the people given this revelation at the time in which it is given.

	What Latter-day Saints Believe: The 9th Article of Faith - LDS
		Keep in mind that the blessings of personal revelation are dependent upon one's exercise of free agency, meaning that, as the old saying goes, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." Whenever we receive a personal revelation from God, it is up to us to act upon it.
		There is another type of revelation that the ninth article of faith refers to, and that is revelation pertaining to the administration of the church.
		This is different from personal revelation, in that personal revelation pertains to the "person," while the latter refers to the direction God gives to those who hold the keys of administration of priesthood duties within the church.

	Baha'i Apocalypticism: Progressive Revelation, file #5
		This last sentence adds another aspect to the continuity of revelation in that the Manifestation of God is conscious of, and connected, with Manifestations of God in the past (the "predecessor") and of the future (the "successor").
		The Revelation of the Báb may be likened to the sun, its station corresponding to the first sign of the Zodiac--the sign Aries--which the sun enters at the vernal equinox.
		This variation in revelation is, however, not inherent in the Manifestations of God, but is attributed to various worldly, or human factors, and thus the various revelations must differ in their non-essential aspects.

		However, as we read through Revelation 10 and 11, we are going to discover that everything taking place here has to do with the sixth trumpet and the two witnesses as a part of the sixth trumpet.
		As we read these next two chapters, we are going to see that this statement is made in relation to the sixth trumpet, which began in Revelation 9:13 and does not conclude until Revelation 11:14,15 where the second “woe” ends and the seventh trumpet signals God’s final judgment.
		However, it won’t be until Revelation 11:15 that the seventh trumpet is finally sounded.

		The Urantia Book speaks of two basic types of revelation: (1) epochal revelation which is periodic, successive, and evolutionary; and (2) continuous revelation insofar as the indwelling Spirit of God reveals truth to individuals.
		Revelation is never too far removed from the thought process of the age in which it is given.
		Since The Urantia Book purports to be the Fifth Epochal Revelation authored by supermortal personalities, it is important to have a clear understanding of the philosophic criteria of truth necessary in evaluating such a claim.

		It took a repeated revelation and a remarkable demonstration of the power of God to convince Peter that this significant change in direction was to be made (see Acts 10).

		During the lifetime of the Holy Prophet, revelation was a constant process, and there was no occasion for giving the various verses the form of a book.
		After the death of the Holy Prophet, the process of revelation came to close, and now the need for some sort of compilation was felt.
		Abu Bakr was in the first instance reluctant to undertake the project for the reason that as the Holy Prophet had not felt the necessity of such compilation; it did not behoove him, as the successor to the Holy Prophet, to take any initiative in the matter.

		Revelation is the rock - Since the church was built on continuous revelation and the gates of hell cannot prevail against it, the true church must be based on continuous revelation.
		The church was founded by revelation and the human head of the church is the living prophet who holds all the keys and authority that Peter had, and who is entitled to modern revelation from God.
		In order for the church to continue, he would have to pass on all of his keys and authority to his successor.
