Someone may be wondering why there is no reference to some book in the bible or to someone who said something about that or just post the scripture or recolle it by memory, even that will do. So this is the question. Is there a scripture from a reputable sourse, emphasizing from a reputable sourse. Even if it is not but it is in the bible that will do and it will be considered. All this instead of saying; are you sure you are right? Because obviously there are many people who read the bible and are wondering where did you read that, where in the bible and you could be right.

Do events steer you? Do people steer you? Does an internal leaning steer you ? Presumably the voice of God. When have you heard His voice the loudest, and have you maybe wondered at times if he was there at all? No one "hears" the audible voice of God, but he speaks to us in many ways. Personally I hear from God in scripture but 90% of the time I hear from Jesus is in my conscience which probably happens 50 times a day. God speaks to us all, but many don't listen. On occasion I think God speaks through other people but I think this is more rare than people actually think. I often have thoughts that I'm not sure if they are from Jesus or my own thoughts. I'm that case, I test them. I decide, does this thought cause me to sin or will it lead me into possible sin? Will this thought contradict what I know of what Jesus wants me to do? If the answer to both of those is no, then I accept it as the word of Jesus. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to make that kind of statement you have some reason for believing it. Some will quote the OT and then how were not adding to Scripture any more. To just take one verse OT "And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,’ when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.”. Did Christ mean something else when He said my sheep hear/listen to my voice? We test it amen and for me never heard audible but He always makes sure its in His word. The last time at the end He said "I am the vine you are the branches". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one was about hearing God's voice and the later part that we hear the Holy Spirit who speaks on his behalf. I was expecting something relevant to us from the New Testament. I read the scripture from Deu. and that happened in the Old Testament when the Israelites heard God talking to them in the dessert from Mount Sinai when it was in flames with Moses at that time. When they enter in the Covenant of Sinai with them. Thank you for the scripture that was interesting and at that time God spoke to them. They were gathered all of them together when God spoke to them. There is nothing about the Holy Spirit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing about the Holy Spirit. sorry i was in a bit of a hurry when i posted this. so i read this passage as nobody can hear Gods voice and live so he has to use the holy spirit to communicate with us kind of like a buffer.
