There is evidence to support the idea that some revelation is dependent upon the interaction with other people. Such was the case of Apollos who was eloquent and mighty in the scriptures (Acts 18:24-26). Although he was fervent in spirit and taught diligently the things of the Lord, he only knew the baptism of John. His theology was deficient. But Aquila and Priscilla heard of Apollos and they took him aside and expounded the way of the God more perfectly to him. There are some things that the Spirit will not reveal to us individually. In essence, some revelation is of a corporate nature and requires the involvement of other people. Indeed, the body is fitly jointed together.
