You were saying ...

So God does not now have a voice?

God has the voice that He chose to use, by His own will... and He's used it. We call it the Bible and it's the inerrant, infallible and perfect Word of God in His 66 books (familair to everyone, I'm sure), along with those 40 authors that He chose to put down His own words in that Scripture.

We have Scripture, as we are told (2 Timothy 3:16-17) --

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

When you have something like the Word of God, i.e., the Scriptures, so that one may be complete and thoroughly equipped for every good work -- you don't need divination from evil spirits to assist you... LOL...

So we only need the Old Testament writings - these were what Paul had when he wrote to Timothy. The writings of the New Testament were not yet in existance, other than perhaps letters that Paul himself wrote, and he did not consider them as “Scripture”.

Laugh all you want. Satan himself is not clairvoyant. He cannot read the mind of God. He has heard what God says, but cannot “forth-tell” beyond that.
