Can God use someone to speak through them? Recently my boyfriend was having a seizure and would pass out afterwards and three times a calm voice came over him and spoke to me. Everyone says it wasn't god but why do I feel as though it was?

According to the scriptures God can give people relevations. However from the example you gave that included seizures sounds more like it could be demonic possession. The Lord encourages us to use discernment & test the spirits. Demons are very deceptive.

How do I know what's God and what's not.

By studying the scriptures. God reveals his nature throughout the bible. As it says in Romans 12:2 - Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

What did he say to you?
He spoke to me on three different occasions. He first told me that I shouldn't worry as much as I do, he told me that that was a lack of faith, he and I had about a 10 minute conversation each time. He told me that Sam's blood was my blood and he made us for each other, the second time he told me about the same time, the third time I tested him, he would speak and I would only answer through my thoughts and he would ask me questions based off my answers and then he said, testing me in thoughts is not the way to do this child. He also said, must I make a dog speak to you for you to know it's me? I guess I just feel crazy

So you have a boyfriend, while contemplating getting back with an ex (according to other posts of yours)?
And your current boyfriend talks to you during his seizures (or some voice comes through him)?
Looking at the state of your dating life, mixed with the high levels of confusion and difficulty in recognizing God's direction it sounds as if you have other aspects of your life (spiritual) that you need to be focused on, not dating.
You seem to be all over the place and clueless as to where to go next. Perhaps it's time to take a break from dating and getting closer with God, learning His character and how to recognize His guidance more clearly.

One thing I try to use to determine the likelihood of if God is speaking or not is precedence. Is it a way God frequently speaks? Is there anything that seems off?
God can do whatever He wants, communicate however Hehe wishes, but some ways just don't sound right. My personal 'opinion' is that something about this sounds off.

The point should be has this ""voice"" spoken words consistent with the Word of God as revealed in the Bible.. You got to be able to test the spirits to know if they are really of God or if they are of satan..

Well the third option is the words where from the mind of your boyfriend???

But anyway there is nothing better then being well read in the Bible..

Also prayer... Ask God if this is from Him or not and Ask Him if it is not from Him to guard you against being deceived by it...

Of course I've thought of that, but the only thing that makes me think it isn't his own thoughts is that the last time whoever spoke to me, he had a seizure during the conversation and I started to panic but he continued to say he's okay, he's okay.

if there's one thing that we both have learned about Jesus Christ, it's that there is no and
never was, any doubt as to Whom it was that was speaking to us!

So because I second guess it, that means it's not God?

Does your ex have a seizure disorder? Reason I ask is that both my mom and sister have seizure disorders so I've been around them for much of my life and it became somewhat normal. After the seizure it is somewhat normal of them to rest for a while afterwards because of what happened in the seizure which is really an electrical short in the brain so the body seizes to regain control. Whether or not you felt God tell you these things this man needs to get medical treatment or find out why this happened to him and remember whatever God tells you will line up with the bible.

PS. 27:10.
When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

138:8.
The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: Thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever:
forsake not the works of Thine own hands.

HEB. 13:5.
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have:
for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
