#4 Continuing Revelation- Christians believe and agree with the statement that God speaks to His children on earth. The difference lays in the way we view our intimate communication and relationship with God. In prayer we speak to God. We ask Him for His intervention in our lives and we faithfully believe that He responds to our prayers. Are we going to say we just received a divine revelation from God‚ or call ourselves prophets?
