Sources of Revelation
Sacred Scripture and Church Tradition are the two means by which Revelation is transmitted and are closely bound together. Christ founded the Church but He did not write a book.

There is no division in the content of the two, but Tradition has the chronological precedence.

Supernatural Revelation
Although Supernatural revelation, allows mankind to know with absolute certainty even those things that with the effort of his own reason he is capable of knowing, all the same it is essential because God wants mankind to be in communion with Him.

The Magisterium comes to our aid on the subject.
