    How do you know when God is speaking?

    I understand your position clearly. I come across it quite frequently. I urge you to stay with the word of God alone. Thanks for responding.

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    Blain said - "it kind of seems as if your purposely trying to make my words say something else " Me - I have pointed out exactly what you said. What you said totally opposed the word of God and that is what got my attention. To say the word of God has "no power" is blasphemous at the...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    Ever read (Jer. 1:10)? 7 But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. 8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth his hand...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    I sure do not want to be blind to the word of God (2Cor. 4:3-7). If I am wrong in any area on spiritual matters just show it to me with the word of God and I will repent (Luke 13:3). 3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Thanks

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    You said - " I am assuming not" Me - Are you judging my heart (motive)? Only the Lord can know the heart of men and why they do things. When it comes to building a house the hammer knocks a nail through a 2x4 to make the house. Sounds violent doesn't it, but that is what it takes to...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    The spirit helps men understand the word of God by and through "WORDS" (Ac 11:14) (Acts 2:40). 14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. To say...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    Here is what you said - Blain said: "The reason that scripture alone has no power is because you need the spirits guidance in order for that power to function " God said - The power is in the word...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    We learn in (Rom 1:18-20) the Lord used the creation to prove His existence. 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    I must correct myself. Blain said the scriptures have "NO POWER". I will oppose that statement all day long.

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    Blain said the power was not in the scriptures. That is why I posted what I did. Illustrations can be helpful I would agree, but the power is in the teaching of Gods word. (1Cor.4:6) is so very clear. "that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written," I would...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    The power is in the word of Christ (Luke 4:32). 32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power. The power is in the gospel (Rom.1:16). 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    An Example of going beyond what God said. (Lev. 10:1-3) 1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not. 2 And there went out fire from the LORD...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    I think we need to study the verse found in (1Cor. 4:6). This will help us understand more clearly how important it is to stay so very close to the word of God and go no further. ...that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written,... This scripture is so very clear...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    The trouble with thinking God speaks directly to people today is that we cannot try or test to see if that is true (1Jn 4:1). When people claim God spoke to them we are just supposed to take it a gospel truth. Not so!!! Any portion of truth should be able to be tested. (1Jn 4:1) 1 Beloved...

    How do you know when God is speaking?

    God has spoken (Heb. 1:1-3). Jesus said the Holy Spirit would help the apostles to remember "all things"... He said to them while on earth. (Jn 14:26) (Jn 16:13). The Lord gave mankind "all things" pertaining to life and godliness... (2Peter 1:3) (2Tim. 3:16,17). 17 That the man of God may...
