Traditionally, the word "Illumination" is not a Biblical word. It is not found anywhere in the KJV Bible. Revelation does happen today. I have experienced revelation. Millions of saints have since the time of Christ. 1 Corinthians 14:26 (26) How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. Are you going to argue that no saints receive a psalm now? Are you going to argue that no saints receive a doctrine now? This passage speaks to an immature and carnal church who needed to be set straight about spiritual gifts. Paul does not say, "sorry, but no revelation is happening anymore. Stop trying to receive it." Rather, he tells them to minister these gifts in an orderly fashion. The instruction he gives to this church applies to our modern churches in matters like this, just as they do in matters of holiness and believing the gospel. Ephesians 1:17-20 (17) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and REVELATION in the knowledge of him: (18) The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, (19) And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, (20) Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places Peace be with you.
