When Did The Church Begin?

Like all of us, the Jews are on a collision course with Christ. So until that Day, maybe both a continuation, further revelation?

I could agree with continuation.

But what could be the further revelation?
Isn't Jesus the ULTIMATE revelation?

I think continued revelation could be a little dangerous...
it kind of could allow any denomination to make up doctrine that is not 100% biblical - maybe based on the bible, but not found IN the bible.

What do you think of continued revelation??

Welllll........since you put it that way, I think the "ultimate revelation" definition is most accurate overall with continuing revelation still being revealed on a personal level on matters we are either too spiritually immature or too ignorant to comprehend. Maybe continuing methods/modes of the ultimate revelation?

Agreed.

Personal revelation does indeed continue.
We should not be the same Christian after years of knowing God.

Although I do know it's also possible for someone to have a total conversion experience.
It took me some time to understand some changes I had to make.

Mine has been a lifetime of conversion with still a ways to go. I had no idea just how much abuse I had suffered until I got away from it. I think I still have a very noticeable limp in my walk with our Lord.

Yeah. I think we're all limping...even those of us that may not even realize it.
But, happily for us, we have Jesus to lift us up each time we fall!
