How 'bout a simple definition? Receiving
revelation is the act of learning something not previously revealed to the
recipient. God can reveal through a prophet, or an ass, or by direct
communication.
DAVEH: Then it could be assumed that one need not be a
prophet to receive revelation. However, would you agree that a prophet
would by his nature receive revelations from the Lord? And.....such
revelations would be extra Bilbical, if they were revealed to a modern day
prophet. May I assume most TTers would agree with
this?
A prophet carries a message from God to men. It may be a
warning, a curse, a verdict, almost anything. We ran out of prophets
in the stricktest sense of the word a looong time ago. Staying with
the strictest sense of the word, it has been even longer since an ass spoke
for God. It is my opinion that the Holy Spirit now has a monopoly on
revelation outside of the Holy Bible.
