I'm not sure I see where you are disagreeing with restornu here. If your argument is against current or "progressive" revelation (in your term) then are you suggesting that the Lord should have commanded Adam to not only offer sacrifice, but to build an ark, pay tithes to Melchizedek, lead the children of Israel out of Egypt, not enter into confederacy with Syria, build the temple, rebuild the temple, cry in the wilderness to prepare the way of the Lord, preach to the gentiles, etc.? The reason the Lord continues to reveal Himself and His will to his anointed servants is everyone has a place, a time, and a duty to perform. Of course there is continued revelation. Is this what you are arguing against?

There is One Perfect Revelation of God. He "became" flesh after the OT personalities you cite. He ascended to Heaven to prepare it for those who recognize Him. All which diverts, deludes, or obscures this Perfect Revelation of God will be banished.

In an honest translation, read John 1, Colossians 1, Hebrews 9-11.

One Lord, one faith, one baptism. Perfect is perfect. Complete is complete. The Holy Spirit does what? He testifies of the One who came in the flesh (I John - test of the spirits).

I suggest all use this test, in their eternal interest.
