Christ's pre-authentication of the New Testament:
(1) he expressly declared that He would leave "many things" unrevealed ([John 16:12](../../../kjv/john/16/12)).
(2) He promised that this revelation should be completed ("all things") after the Spirit should come, and that such additional revelation should include new prophecies ([John 16](../../../kjv/john/16):)).
(3) He chose certain persons to receive such additional revelations, and to be His witnesses to them [Matthew 28:19](../../../kjv/matthew/28/19); [John 15:27](../../../kjv/john/15/27); [John 16:13](../../../kjv/john/16/13); [Acts 1:8](../../../kjv/acts/1/8); [Acts 9:15-17](../../../kjv/acts/9/15-17).
(4) he gave to their words when speaking for Him in the Spirit precisely the same authority as His own [Matthew 10:14](../../../kjv/matthew/10/14); [Matthew 10:15](../../../kjv/matthew/10/15); [Luke 10:16](../../../kjv/luke/10/16); [John 13:20](../../../kjv/john/13/20); [John 17:20](../../../kjv/john/17/20) see e.g. [1 Corinthians 14:37](../../../kjv/1-corinthians/14/37) and "Inspiration," ; [Exodus 4:15](../../../kjv/exodus/4/15); [Revelation 22:19](../../../kjv/revelation/22/19).
