Nothing.
Really the only qualification is that whatever you write has to be accepted as authentic scripture by at least some Christians. And most Christians believe that the Bible is finalized, completed, scripture.

You should read the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price next. Not the Quran. The Quran is a totally different continuity but the LDS scriptures are a genuine continuation of the Bible, like the New Testament was to the Old Testament.

Does he conform to Nietzsche's idea of the Übermensch?

>created his own morality
>slept with any woman he wanted to
>exerted his will to power
>his death only led to him having more power (martyr complex incited more people to join his new morality)
