Not exactly, not an audible voice, if that’s what you are referring to. The Lord communicates through prayer, through His word. When you are in a relationship with someone, you talk. You want the other person to know you, what you’re thinking, etc. It makes for a healthy relationship. God wants relationship with people. He longs after souls. He reaches out to us. A favorite verse of mine is in Jeremiah 29, verse 13 “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” That is God talking, no? He is saying (promising) that when we dilegently search for Him with a true heart, we will find Him. That’s just what the Lord Jesus did. He came to seek and to save that which was lost. He came with a heart that was perfect, loving, seeking. He finds those that are likewise seeking for Him. That is relationship. After doing all that He did for us on the cross (God demonstrates His own love for us in this, that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us)...after all that, why would He just allow the relationship to dissolve into some far away, nebulous, uncertainty? Why wouldn’t He continue to demonstrate that love, reveal it, let His loved one know just how much s/he means to Him? The wonder of the cross is that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto Himself, seeking to have fellowship with His creature, man, making strangers and enemies, His friends and children, wooing for Himself a
Bride.
Read Song of Solomon chapter 5 for a picture of how the Lord feels about His Bride, the Church...then listen for His knock and don’t delay in running to the door!
Amen!
Roms. 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
***Not exactly, not an audible voice, if thats what you are referring to. The Lord communicates through prayer***
Are you saying that the Lord prays to you?
***When you are in a relationship with someone, you talk.***
Prayer is you talking to God. How does the Lord communicate with you?
***A favorite verse of mine is in Jeremiah 29, verse 13 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. That is God talking, no?***
It is Scripture. You read it; how does it talk to you?
***That is God talking, no? He is saying (promising) that when we dilegently search for Him with a true heart, we will find Him. Thats just what the Lord Jesus did. He came to seek and to save that which was lost. He came with a heart that was perfect, loving, seeking.***
You said that He talks to you. How does He do that, with you?
***Why wouldnt He continue to demonstrate that love, reveal it, let His loved one know just how much s/he means to Him? ***
Never said that He wouldn’t. How does He reveal it to you?
I am seeing responses here that the Biblioters give. I had a different opinion of your faith previously.
