Loved the video and the comment. How does God speak to us? Through His word. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. The Holy Spirit who is in all believers uses the indwelling word of Christ to speak to believers. There is no extra-Biblical communication going on. God speaks to His people through His word.
Yes, up until the Cannon was completed with John and the Book of Revelation. IN Hebrews Ch 1 Vs 1-2 it says " God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son."
Very good question. It's very easy to be deceived and they will try to do so. But all you have to do is ask. I once thought I was talking to God, but noticed that something was slightly off. Luckily I thought to ask, "wait, how do I know you're God?" That instant it became very clear that it was not God. Scariest moment of my life.
I didn't know this "rule" when it happened because I didn't know Christ at the time. But the Bible gives specific instructions on this, so I'd go with those:
"By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already."
By the way, protip, after physical death, when you feel drawn in by what you perceive as brightness, make sure you ask that brightness if he's really God. Lucifer appears bright, so don't be bashful about questioning God's identity as he's letting you in to Heaven.
Do you have a direct link to this video. I’d like to post it on my women’s study!
I think I got it.
We love Michael Jr.!

"There is no extra-Biblical communication going on"
The bible is full of extra-biblical communication, isn't it?
Yes, up until the Cannon was completed with John and the Book of Revelation. IN Hebrews Ch 1 Vs 1-2 it says " God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son."
His son and the angels speak extra-biblically currently. The bible was not the final communication from the heavens.
Really? What do they say? What do they sound like?
Hard to describe what they sound like. Most communications aren't auditory. Not for me, at least.
Beings of differing spiritual hierarchies communicate in different ways.
Then how do you know what or who they are? How do you determine if they are demons or other?
