The Bible

 

Revelation - The supernatural communication from God to man either oral or written, whereby man receives truth he could not otherwise know.

Personal Opinion:

It's too bad I am not that much of a logician that I could prove it through iron clad logic that there is no way through logic that we can know God except that God tell us, reveal Himself to us on his own terms at the time of his choosing. But I think that this is so.

Common sense told me at an early age that the creation of the universe and time can not be comprehended by human means.  It has to be explained in a superhuman manner and so it was.

We have the Bible, the oldest story, claimed to be written by God and revealing himself from the very beginning of the time when his creatures have brains enough to comprehend.
