AMOS 3:7.--"The Lord will do nothing, but he revealeth his secrets unto
his servants, the prophets."
I COR. 2:10-13.--Those who possess the Spirit of God receive
revelation. (See also passages under "Holy Ghost, Gifts and
Operations.")
EPH. 3:3.--Paul receives revelation.
PHIL. 3:15.--The Lord will reveal more if necessary.
MATT. 16:13-18.--"The gates of hell shall not prevail against it"--the
rock of revelation.
DOC. AND COV. 42:61.--Elders of Church may receive revelation.
DOC. AND COV. 43:2-6; 107:91, 92.--President only receives revelations
for the Church.
Opponents to modern revelation quote:
REV. 22:18, 19.--Which forbids man to take from or add to the words
of the Book. The reply to this is that the passage does not say the
Lord might not do this; besides, reference is made only to the Book of
Revelations. John wrote his Gospel afterwards. A similar admonition is
found in Deut. 4:2.
_THE APOSTASY._
It is a self-evident fact that the Gospel as preached and practiced
by Christ and His first disciples was corrupted, and at last, lost
altogether during the Dark Ages. This is shown if we put the so-called
Christian sects to the test which Christ gave. JOHN 13:35.--"By this
shall all men know that ye are my disciples if ye have love one to
another," also
MATT. 7:15-20.--By their fruits ye shall know them.
