(Latin: re, back; velum, veil)

A drawing aside of the veil, disclosing what is hidden, as the unveiling of a statue. Divine revelation discloses things about God which otherwise we should not know, or know imperfectly only. Revelation is the basis of supernatural religion, of knowledge of God and divine things which is above unaided reason, or which, though attainable by reason, becomes known in a way that is outside the course of nature. Christ affirmed: "All things are delivered to Me by My Father. And no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father: and who the Father is, but the Son and to whom the Son will reveal Him." (Luke 10)

"I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No man cometh to the Father, but by Me ...he that seeth Me, seeth the Father also." (John 14)

"My doctrine is not Mine, but His that sent Me." ( John 7)

"the works themselves which I do, give testimony of Me, that the Father hath sent Me" (John 5)

"For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. For neither did I receive it of man; nor did I learn it but by the revelation of Jesus Christ." (Galatians 1)
