 Armed with the purported background knowledge that a certain kind of revelation is likely, Swinburne suggests four “tests” or criteria for credible revelatory claims (Swinburne 2007: Ch. 6). The first criterion is that the content of a purported revelation concerns things that are important for our deepest well-being, and that this content is not very improbable on grounds independent of revelation. This “content test” must be complemented by a “miracle test”, which is the second criterion. If God wants us to be able to identify a divine revelation as such, he must deliver it in a way that only God could do. This requires a divine signature in the form of a confirming miracle, in the sense of a violation of a natural law. Third, if a revelation is to have a determinate content that is not endlessly open to interpretation, a genuine revelation must contain instructions for how an interpretive church is to be constituted, and the interpretations of this church must be plausible as interpretations of the original revelation. The fourth test is that the church’s interpretations of revelation must not be very implausible on other, independent grounds.
