    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 23, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,219 views

    Some believe that the 66 books that make up the Bible are insufficient, so they continuously look for private prophetic words, dreams, or visions for a more meaningful personal experiential revelation from God. - A Multi-Part Message

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Nov 24, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,223 views

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 24, 2023
