Why are some denominations so against the idea of personal revelation as a source of Truth? Thanks. The way I see it, I can contribute more to a site like christianforums.com, where there can be more back and forth regarding various Biblical texts. Also, I changed "solar" to "sola" and added "or deceived," since TRiG raised the point that someone claiming revelation from God may not be intentionally deceitful :) |

Why are some denominations so against the idea of personal revelation as a source of Truth? Added "or deceived" to the reason for why someone would erroneously claim revelation from God. |

Is confessing to a priest the only way to be forgiven? If you notice, in italics, I say "in order to obtain favor with God." My reasoning comes from Galatians 5:1-4, where Paul talks about how seeking justification by means of the law severs us from Christ. I assert that God detests it when we do anything in a way other than His way. Hope that helps clarify! |

Why are some denominations so against the idea of personal revelation as a source of Truth? Thanks, Caleb. I think I just started to figure that out about this site, which means it's not for me. I'm only concerned with absolute Truth. Thanks again for the notification! |
