In religion revelation is central to understanding God and sprituality. It's a way of revealing the 'truth' of that religion.

Revelation

Revelation is to do with the ways that God communicates with people.

There are two types of revelation:

  • General revelation is indirect, and available to everyone. Some truths about God can be revealed through reason, conscience, the natural world, or moral sense.
  • Special revelation is direct revelation to an individual or a group. This sort of revelation includes dreams, visions, experience and prophecy.
