God has many messages.
Through out the ages he has spoken to all peoples.
he has done this in the way each age and people can understand.
Yes,and the bible says when you read you will understand (Eph.3:3,4)(2Tim.3:14-17).
Do not shut out Gods message to us today by limiting God's power to speak to us.
The latterday Saints have and still receive their Guidance though their Prophet.
It is not I that is limiting the word of God. I just read and understood what (Jude 3) and (2Peter 1:3) says. The message was ONCE DELIVERED and it had all things pertaining to life and godliness when it was delivered in the first century. It is called the PERFECT (or complete) word of God (James 1:25) (GAl.6:2). If the bible taught any other thing I would believe it. The bible said those miracles and divine knowledge was to cease in the first century or soon after (1Cor.13:8-10). It was Only by the 12 apostles hands that the gifts of the Holy Spirit could be passed along to other people (Acts 6:6 ; 8:18). Once the bible was wrote there was no need for the gifts any more. I would be more than glad to study this topic with you anytime.The gifts confirmed the word and the speaker (Mark16:20) (Heb.2:3,4).
the numerous other Christian denominations also commune with God. Some shut their ears and say " God speaks no more, we have the final Message in our version of the Bible"
I do not belong to any denomination. I belong to the Lords church. He said he would build only one in (Mt.16:18).Jesus is the head (Col.1:18) (Eph.1:2,23).The body is made up of christians.
Isn't it possible that those people think they are communing with God but in fact they have been deceived (2Cor.11:13-15)?
That is to deny God's living word to us today.
God is not shut away in the past, God speaks to us still.
Would you deny his ability to communicate, by limiting his message to those words man recorded in their Bibles.
I do not wish to deny you of anything. I cannot but believe God when he says he gave us all things pertaining to life and godliness within the bible. He said it was once delivered. (Jude3) (2Peter 1:3) . When you have ALL of something you do not wait for more,there is no more to be had if God give us ALL of it. ANd that is what he said in the bible.
Let me say this,If what you believe and taught harmonized with the bible I would believe it and teach it to others (2Tim2:2).Have you ever wondered why people tell you not to believe the most popular book in the world. A book which most religious people believe to be truth (Gal. 1:6-9)(John 17:17). The bible says if even an ANGEL says anything other than what is wrote in the bible it is a perverted gospel and the person saying it is to be cut off from GOD. Please see how serious this is to me. I do not wish to upset no one. I just wish to teach you the truth I have found. Please believe me these are not my words,but the very words of Jesus. There have been times I found I taught things contrary to the bible,it was when I learned what the bible taught that I repented and taught truth found within the bible. I truly believe it and try my best to follow it. It cannot be proven to be wrong. Truth is truth no matter which way you look at it.---- in love Baerly
