My thought on this is to know what you know and know that you know it.

If God answers and communicates directly and personally according to one's faithfulness to receive and give thanks and gratitude to God for life, then it's all good.

But remember.....if God spoke to any, and they tell of it, then God should speak to us, for having heard of it as so.

Personally, i have never been answered but by the God of Jesus' words. The others were absent from communicating anything relevant and coherent.

And to that, I am convinced that God does so for all that follow what Jesus has offered.

The others avoid such bold claims and seek to have advantage and privelege over others for their special dispensations.

That is just not going to make it.

Not when so many Christians testify that God speaks and dwells in man's heart when it is supple and softened towards God, not other men.

I testify it is so, as well.

But to Him ought one seek for the proof, not for the consensus of the democratized will of men which is licentiousness and elitist arrogance.

YHWH, baby!

God has many names...just like me...a name is for reference IMO

here i'm YR, yellow, rose, yellowrose, b*tch and many others
in real life I'm Kim, Kimberly, Kimmy, b*tch (among others), someone's mom, aunt, daughter, granddaughter etc. i go by many names as well...but I'm still me

Our creator has 1 name. He says I am one.His name is found in the OT 6900 times as LORD which they chose to use to hide his true name YHWH 4 letters for each. The preface of most Bibles will tell you this. We can come up with all kinds of excuses why it does not matter yet we at the same time say we must have a personal relationship with him. I find it hard to call someone something else who I have personal a relationship with.. Blessings..Miles
