GOD SPEAKS
Jesus went on a high mountain with three of His main apprentices
and just after they saw Jesus talking to Elijah and Moses, a cloud
appeared and a voice they understood as God's, spoke from the
cloud saying "THIS IS MY SON, AND I LOVE HIM. OBEY
HIM!" [Mk 9:7 IC]{Mt 17:5}{Lk 9:35} When they came down
from the mountain Jesus told the three to not tell anyone what
happened until after He "RISES FROM DEATH" [Mk 9:9 IC],
which confused them even more. Another time when people heard
God's voice from heaven, Jesus stated “THIS VOICE WAS FOR
YOUR BENEFIT, NOT MINE” [Jn 12:30 NI]. God's voice from
heaven concerning Jesus is for our benefit both times and certainly
refutes the manmade teaching that Jesus is "really God deceiving
us". God's voice was not Jesus using ventriloquism to further
deceive us. Today God still speaks audibly, however most of the
time He speaks to us silently, as He did when only Jesus' audible
part of the conversation was recorded "BUT DO WHAT YOU
WANT, NOT WHAT I WANT" [Mk 14:6 IC]. Does God speak to
you?
