They find and/or make it difficult for themselves and others to be open to continuing revelations---even when all that is involved is a logical extension in the manner of a corollary to a revelation which they have already accepted as true, valid and significant. They feel very uncomfortable and/or embarrassed by scriptures and revelations which are not closed, not necessary and/or not sufficient in regards to dealing with modern existential situations. God is powerful enough to give to open and honest modern people new revelations which are necessary and/or sufficient for dealing with modern existential situations in ways which are complementary to traditional scriptures and their old revelations. Holy Spirit is still present and at work. Humans are not powerful enough to still the still small voice of Holy Spirit through their collusive games of mutual self deception and their violent conflicts. God has no reason to let collusive humans stand in Her Way and stop Her Works of liberation, reconciliation, peacemaking and healing. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
