REVEAL and PROPHETIC UNDERSTANDING IN CHRISTIANITY

Summary/Abstract: Revelation, which is very important in all divine religions, affects the way of life of people, the divine book, prophethood and the understanding of angels from invisible beings. As it is known, people's understanding of life, nature and everything created has been associated with revelation. However, although revelation is explained in different ways in all divine religions, it is a common phenomenon in religions that the Divine communicates with man and explains the rules that will guide his world and hereafter. The approach to the issue of revelation and prophet in Christianity is quite different from the approach of other religions to these issues. The obvious reason for this differentiation is the Jesus-Christ issue. According to the Christian belief, the real revelation emerges in Jesus Christ. God came to earth by being incarnate in JesusChrist and struggled to save people who were sinking into sin. Because of this event, they see their own belief in revelation as superior to the concept of revelation of other religions. As a matter of fact, according to them, the revelation existed in Jesus himself. In Islam, revelation is divine information conveyed to prophets through Gabriel. In Christianity, revelation is seen as Jesus himself. In other words, while revelation in Islam is the transmission of knowledge, in Christianity it is Jesus Christ himself.
