Descriptions:
In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we believe in what we call modern revelation. Just like in ancient times, we believe that today God can speak not only to prophets but to each of His children individually, through the Holy Spirit. This principle of personal modern revelation is hugely important. But it can also be frustrating if you don’t know how the Spirit communicates with you — if you don’t know what to expect. For example, the scriptures are chock-full of miraculous manifestations of the Spirit. Pillars of fire, angelic appearances, prophetic dreams, etc. These kinds of miracles can happen today just as they did anciently, but if this is what you’re expecting from the Spirit day after day in your personal life, you’re probably going to be disappointed. In this episode, Dave outlines some of the differences between revelation and inspiration in an effort to help viewers more easily see God’s hand in their lives.
