The Revelational Knowledge of God

By Francis Elijah Ndunagum

Many today in Christianity frequently talk about having revelation knowledge of God. In a biblically related topic, it is common to find many angles to the same topic. This leaves one with the belief that there is no singular interpretation to any aspect of the word of God. The angle from which the word of God is portrayed can be said to be right if basically it does not contradict known passages of the scriptures but seeks to present it in a hitherto unknown angle. Many outside of the body of Christ have used this diverse presentation of the word of God negatively against the church saying that the Bible contradicts itself, which is not true. It is my aim in this publication to try and shed more light on the “revelation of God” so that people will open up their hearts to the truth instead of debating on things that are unprofitable.
Blind people who have to rely on the sense of touch and a guide, to identify things around them. It is impossible for a blind man to accurately describe an object, because of his blindness. At best, they can put across what they believe they have felt by way of touch. If blind men are gathered an animal and asked to describe a specific part they are made to feel, the descriptions given will vary according to the part they touch. All put together, the various descriptions will depict the animal touched but they may not be able to name the animal. Every animal has parts common to them such as the head, body, and legs etc. The varied descriptions they give will nonetheless be correct but not being able to physically see the animal; will lead to some measure of limitation in their descriptions.
God reveals Himself diversely to his people and this predominant revelation of God in a particular manner determines the understanding of the one to whom God has chosen to reveal himself to in such manner. These revelations are directly related to His attributes.

PREFACE

THE POWER OF REVELATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF GOD:

Your intimate relationship with God gives you clear pictures on God’s revelation

When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven, Matthew 16:13-19, KJV.

One of the most important things for all of us to know is how progressive our relationship with God should be. The more you grow in God, the more you learn of him. Sometimes, God takes us on a journey and through experiences of the journey He reveals Himself to us.

Every test, every miracle, every trial and every lesson that God took us through was all a part of a plan to move us into a progressive revelation. It is important for us to understand this, because God wants to manifest His power in our lives. Jesus in Caesarea Philippi calls his disciples in and he asks them who do people say he is? Then he pulls them in closer and asks the disciples, who do they say he is? The disciples told Him that some people said, you’re John the Baptist; some said, you’re Elias and others said, you’re Jeremias, or one of the prophets. Then, Jesus asked the disciples, but whom say ye that I am? Peter said to Him, thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus said to him, flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Any blind person has lost sight of their vision and has to rely more on the sense of touch in addition to a guide to determine things around them. It
