Subject: How to teach people to hear God's voice? |
Bible Note: Hi Doc I understand that this is a metaphor with the sheep but are you saying that God has been silenced since the Holy Spirit inspired these godly men to pen the Word that we call our Bile. If that is true then how can you and I read the Bible over and over and still grasp a different meaning from the same passage of scripture. It is because God is not silenced. The Holy Spirit causes His Word/Voice to come alive and tells us how to apply this Word or instructions, if you will, in our everyday life. You may say that is your conscious speaking. If you believe that God is your Creator then who is it that is causing your conscious to respond. It simply God speaking to you in a still small voice. (1 Kings 19:12) If you are not a confessing christian, meaning Christ born of a virgin, crucified on the cross, burried, and raised again on the third day, and now is sitting at the right hand of the Father forever interceding for you and I, then your conscious is subject to your beliefs. God created us to commune with Him so why would He be silent in a time when we need Him the most in our dark world. Please recieve this in the love in which it is sent. Thanks for your response.
