Özet:

As it is well known, God has made contact with humankind by speaking with them or appearing to them in some world religions. This sort of relationship is expressed as revelation. In this article, we tried to analyze perception of revelation in Christian thought and how this perception has been explained in the history of Christianity. In this essay, descriptive method is used, since it aims to inform the Turkish reader about the concept of revelation and its perceptions in Christianity. However while we are doing this, we also have done some analysis about how the revelation has been perceived in Christian thought. Within this context, at the very beginning, the general Christian perception of revelation in the light of Christian’s sacred scripture is dealt with. Secondly, it is studied the perceptions of Christian theologians about revelation from the earlier times to the modern times. Thirdly, it is focused on the discussions about one of the main problems of Christian perception of revelation namely general and special revelation. Lastly, it is explained the incident of God’s incarnation in Jesus-Christ as the climax of special revelation
