What was the "revelation" you received when you received "the revelation"?

I do not recall personally claiming divine "revelation" - though I do recall others saying about me "He really got the revelation". Christ was revealed to me when He opened my eyes to my incredible sin and His ability to utterly take it all.
As a convert to Pentecostalism I have always been appalled when insinuations are made that "we" serve a different God, or "they" serve a plurality of gods. I pray to the same Jesus I have prayed to since a small child - He has always been exposed and revealed to me.
When my time comes, I am comforted in knowing I am going to be with Jesus, and will also rejoin with friends and family who have died in Christ. It is not disturbing to me that all in Christ are not Oneness Pentecostal - in fact, given our own divisions, I find that most comforting as well. Our hope is in Christ Jesus - not perfection in doctrine and discipline.
That is not to say there aren't many important secondary issues we have debated through the years - just that God is greater than our intellect of him.
