Accepting point 1 implicitly calls for continuing revelation.

That's ok.
In fact, that's in the Job Description of the Comforter, that Jesus said would be sent: the Holy Spirit.

We are creatures of spirit and live in a world of spirits. When one is “moved” or has a revelation by a spirit, it is best to test that motivation by comparing it to what is taught by scripture. That reproof is what allows us to verify that it is the Holy Spirit that is leading us and not the temptation of false spirits.

So he’s comforting everyone a different way? You have to know that a headless, disorganized Church receiving continuing revelation for said Church is contra-Biblical.

You cannot have continuing revelation and no Church hierarchy. That’s the lesson of the Old and New Testament.
