About this Quote

This quote by Orson Pratt highlights the significance of reality and revelation in the service of God. He is saying that a real servant of God will never teach an incorrect doctrine, deny brand-new revelation, or tell individuals that the canon of scripture is total. He is suggesting that God is still revealing new facts to mankind, which the New Testament is not the last discovery ever planned to be given. This quote motivates us to be available to new discoveries from God, and to be happy to accept them as truth.
