God Never Stopped Speaking

The impossibility of God ever ceasing to speak, and the consequences were He to do so

The Story of Regina

Explanation of the letter I have written to Regina Oliveira. She was an important part of the surreal story of my life from 1984 to 1991, then she disappeared. Her love sustained us in a very difficult time. This story teaches that you can’t know how much the kindness you do today will change the world forty years from now.

Warning: Spiritual Encouragement/ Exhortation Causes Paroxysms!

If we are doing what we are supposed to be doing, we should expect to see some earthquakes, volcanoes, seizures, fires, and other things that drastically change the lives of the people around us–though in a good direction–toward love and good deeds.

Advertencia: ¡Aliento Espiritual / Exhortación Causa Paroxismos!

Si estamos haciendo lo que se supone que debemos hacer, debemos esperar ver algunos terremotos, volcanes, convulsiones, incendios y otras cosas que cambian drásticamente la vida de las personas que nos rodean, aunque en una buena dirección, hacia el amor y las buenas obras.

God’s Work and Voice in Me, Part 7G: Didn’t the Apostles Say God Was About to Quit Speaking to Us?

The blog post discusses various scriptures in an attempt to address the topic of whether God ceased to speak after the Bible was finished. The author contests teachings that this is the case, arguing that scriptures often thought to support this view require numerous assumptions. The post suggests that the divine dialogue continues, challenging readers to approach scripture with less literal interpretation and more open-minded understanding. The author plans to discuss each scripture in greater detail in subsequent posts and videos.

God’s Work and Voice in Me, Part 7F: To Speak or Not to Speak, that is the Question

God’s Work and Voice in Me, Part 7E: God’s Voice in the New Testament

The voice of God as found being spoken to various people in the New Testament, both publicly and privately.

God’s Work and Voice in Me, Part 7D: Voices Anyone? An immodest proposal,

As one who has long had the experience of being aware, at times, of God’s voice, I propose to the Church at large that we should 1) treat spiritual “voices,” in general, as real and not as mere symptoms of mental illness, 2) learn to distinguish God’s voice from the other voices in our world, and 3) resolve to follow God’s voice. #3 is the key, because we will not be able to discern God’s voice unless we are his sheep, who hear and follow it.

Part 7C: God Speaks to Us–He Never Quit Speaking

This post and the linked video discuss a few New Testament passages in which God tells us that he intends to continue communicating with us. This set of passages have at least plausible interpretations that do not require present-time vocal communication. The next video will cover passages that appear to require current-time spoken communication.
