2 Nephi 29
There is logic in this chapter that is undeniable. If you believe in a God that has always given revelation throughout history, and that revelation was written by prophets and preserved as scripture, how could you assume he would not speak again? How could anyone assume that he had no more to say? And even more basic, who are we to decide that God will not speak again? The Lord even asks, "Why murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God?" We only have a fraction of what was written by the prophets and to receive more confirms God's existence and the truth of what he says. And not only do we have more scripture from the past, but we have revelation and scripture in our day also. To assume that God is not active in our lives and not speaking to prophets is to close our eyes to the sun on a bright summer day and say there is no light.
