And he reveals some of Himself to every generation. So you and I have the revelation of our generation, plus the revelation of every generation before us.<br /><br />However, as you point out: translating that revelation into knowing God is another thing altogether.nwphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818514321816054109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899018576420083198.post-10305166257460118572015-10-24T08:40:51.080-07:002015-10-24T08:40:51.080-07:00Are you saying that you enter the third heaven of ...Are you saying that you enter the third heaven of the Apostle Paul's experience? Can you reveal, or even hear, the "unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter." [2 Corinthians 12:4]<br />Progressive Revelation is clearly evident, but I don't see it on a personal basis. God alone opens the eyes of a generation in the progress of His Kingdom. Yet a seer, like Daniel, may see more that others in his generation. His revelations may need to be "sealed up" for a time until the progress of the Kingdom catches up. <br />To believe that you can know God better than Paul or Abraham is dangerous doctrine. Better to believe that Paul or Abraham or Moses have not yet been fully understood by the Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
