Quote To Ponder
Mystical revelation claimed by many in the interim as a personal privilege is out of keeping with the genius of Biblical religion. Mysticism in this detached form is not specifically Christian. It occurs in all types of religion, better or worse. At best it is a manifestation of the religion of nature, subject to all the defects and faults of the latter. As to its content and inherent value it is unverifiable, except principle of submitting it to the test of harmony with scripture. And submitting it to this it ceases to be a seperate source of revelation concerning God. -Geerhardus Vos
