Revelation

Abstract

It is a priori fairly probable that God would provide for human beings a revelation which would require a little effort to discover, revealing more about his own nature and how we can make ourselves fit it for closer union with him in Heaven. The revelation would need to be clothed in the presuppositions of the culture to which it was originally given, and God would need to establish a church to work out and explain its meaning to each new culture. The evidence that a purported revelation is a true revelation would be that its content is plausible and deep, and that it is backed up by God’s signature – that is a miraculous act which only God could do.
