In this episode of Wisdom for the Wilderness, the pastors of Overland Church explore the foundational doctrine of revelation. They distinguish between general revelation—God's self-disclosure through creation, accessible to all people at all times, as seen in Psalm 19 and Romans 1—and special revelation, which is specific, covenantal communication through prophets, apostles, and ultimately Jesus Christ, as described in Hebrews 1. The pastors explain that general revelation reveals God's existence, power, and goodness but, due to human sinfulness, often leads to idolatry rather than salvation. Special revelation, recorded in Scripture, provides the specific message of salvation through Christ and is fully divine and human, inspired by the Holy Spirit. They address the dangers of false claims to special revelation, such as those made by figures like Muhammad, Joseph Smith, or prosperity gospel preachers, which contradict the closed canon of Scripture. The episode also contrasts the Protestant view of sola scriptura with Catholic teachings on church authority and warns against equating personal guidance or impressions with new revelation. Through practical examples and biblical insights, the pastors urge listeners to rely on Scripture as the sufficient and authoritative source of God's revelation, cautioning against those who claim new prophetic words that elevate themselves above the Bible.
