Don't be too hard on the class members. When the Church itself had to prepare a list for the lesson on "Continuing Revelation", here's the best they could come up with (in this order):

1. Church Correlation

2. Revelation extending the blessings of the priesthood to every worthy male member of the Church.

3. Publication of new Latter-day Saint editions of the scriptures.

4. Additional Quorums of the Seventy

Transcript: LARRY KING LIVE - December 26, 2004 wrote:...
KING: You are the prophet, right?

HINCKLEY: Right.

KING: Does that mean that, according to the church canon, the Lord speaks through you?

HINCKLEY: I think he makes his will manifest, yes.

KING: So if you change things, that's done by an edict given to you.

HINCKLEY: Yes, sir.

KING: How do you receive it?

HINCKLEY: Well, various ways. It isn't necessarily a voice heard. Impressions come. The building of this very building I think is an evidence of that.

There came an impression, a feeling, that we need to enlarge our facilities where we could hold our conferences. And it was a very bold measure. We had to tear down a big building here and put this building up at great cost.

But goodness sakes, what a wonderful thing it's proven to be. It is an answer to many, many needs. And I think it's the result of inspiration.

KING: And that came from something higher than you.

HINCKLEY: I think so.

Correlation being the rough equivalent of replacing the spirit with the law.
