Engaging the Doctrine of Revelation

The Mediation of the Gospel through Church and Scripture.
How do human beings today receive divine revelation? Where and in what ways is
it mediated so that all generations can hear the fullness of the gospel? In
this volume, distinguished theologian Matthew Levering shows that divine
revelation has been truthfully mediated through the church, the gospel, and
Scripture so that we can receive it in its fullness today. Levering engages
past and present approaches to revelation across a variety of traditions,
offering a comprehensive, historical study of all the key figures and
perspectives. His thorough analysis results in an alternative approach to
prevailing views of the doctrine and points to its significance for the entire
church.

Taking his starting point in the missions of the Son and the Spirit, " Levering presents a powerful and consistent case for the faithfulness of the
mediation of divine revelation in Scripture and the church. It is a testimony
to Levering's theological depth and gentle spirit that he manages to combine
his staunch opposition to any and all ecclesial fall narratives with an irenic
treatment of the many evangelical theologians with whom he interacts, and whose
views on revelation positively enter into his own understanding of God's
faithfulness in divine revelation. - Hans Boersma"
