The idea that new divine revelations may supercede even Jesus Christ and surpass even canonical Scripture denies the uniqueness of Jesus Christ as God’s self-revelation in person and opens the door to all kinds of new messiahs and incarnations. If such claims and expectations were allowed at all, it would be impossible to maintain any stable identity of Christianity or message of the gospel. Where such openness to new revelation surpassing Jesus Christ and Scripture has been taken seriously, Christianity has been transformed into a cult.
