Nowadays, if people still wrote down "divine" words...?
...on a scroll and claimed it to be the true word of "God", would you then follow it faithfully and add it to an extension to your holy book and core beliefs?
If not, why do you accept the same thing from thousands of years ago which has probably been mistranslated and manipulated to the point that the messages are completely different to the original texts anyway?

Modern revelation and modern prophets....interesting concept. 2000 years ago (and even father back) people had the same problem....they didn't want to believe man in front of them claiming to speak God's word.
People have always had a hard time accepting anyone claiming to be a prophet in their time.
"It used to be that people stone and killed the prophets, nowadays we just ignore them"
"Let us not make the error of the ancients. Numerous modern sectarians believe in the Abrahams, the Moseses, and the Pauls, but resist believing in today’s prophets. The ancients also could accept the prophets of an earlier day, but denounced and cursed the ones who were their contemporaries."

While God wouldnt do that as its not biblical, so no, ill give u a hypothetical answer. Depends could He prove its Gods word, does God perform signs to back it up? Would He tell me its of Him? Is it contradicting in ANYway to the bible? Cuz if it is no. If it matches that last one, plus another, then yes. Bible is infallible inerrant protected by a omnipotent omniscient omnipresent God

The living word in the Bible is perfect and always has been. When they found the Dead Sea Scrolls they found the book of Isiah in the collection and when they compared it to the same book in the Bible today they found it to be 100% accurate.
