If a revelation agrees with scripture, then all else being equal it should be received. Trinitarianism was and is unscriptural. God is constantly trying to call people out of man made traditions and back to the Bible.
Re the slavery issue, the Bible nowhere commands any nation to continue slavery or maintain it. The Bible does give rules for its management assuming the institution exists. It should also be noted that antebellum slavery seems to have violated in some ways those Biblical commands.
