Subject: How to teach people to hear God's voice? |
Bible Note: That's understandable, Colin. Each of us has something that we consider authoratitve. If that thing is satisfied, then we are willing to believe. Your admission of a desire to believe and an inability to disbelieve in extra-Biblical Christophenies, is very honest and insightful. I strongly suggest that you settle in your mind the greater authority of Scripture. Even Peter said that seeing the transfiguration and audibly hearing the voice of God was less of a "sure word of prophecy" than the scripture itself. Having this solidly settled in your mind will prevent you from being deceived by those who would happily take advantage of your preconceptions of supernatural manifestations. Thank you for being so open and honest. I trust that my post will be received with the kind and gentle intent with which it is offered. In Him, Doc |
