To begin with the New Dispensation Church has not bound itself to limits inconveniently narrow by denying revelation. She necessarily started with revelation to bring forth her initial truth, and has consistently continued to claim continuous revelation for a perpetuation of it. Her faith in respect to this is thus stated:

"We believe the Bible to be the word of God so far as it is translated correctly. We also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God. We believe all that God has revealed, all that he does now reveal, and we believe that he will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the kingdom of God."

This was stated so in 1842, and it is still our faith. This makes a very important distinction between the Church of the New Dispensation and with so-called orthodox Churches of modern Christendom.
