You were incorrect. I took Macarthur’s “no direct revelation” to mean that a man cannot hear directly, specific instruction and guidance from God, regarding specific directions for what to do or say on a particular day concerning particular circumstances.

Also, it is definitely unreasonable for you to have inferred, from what I wrote, that I had implied revelation “apart from the scriptures and the working of the Holy Spirit”. For me, there is no worthwhile knowledge, wisdom or understanding apart from the scriptures and the working of the Holy Spirit.

Your statement appears to be a contradiction. Either you receive specific instructions from God or you don't except for what is in scripture guided by the Holy Spirit.
