Can I talk to God?

Offtoou777 · Sep 28, 2002

In the beginning, Genesis 1:1 God created the Heaven and the Earth. Genesis 1:2 and the earth was formless and void.

God knew us before the foundation of the earth. Has creation presented order, that we may talk to God?

Our Salvation is with God and not of this world. The self will  of man after his own kind that dwelt upon the earth:  they whom do not go with God in His work of salvation will be on judgement day said in the bible, be cast from Gods Presence.

there is only one place in the bible that in creation describes the beginning of such a desolation.  Being made "Formless and void" though in Genesis 1:2 Gods intentions are evident, as Life.

Thus I state that when the old heaven and the old earth pass, all that are not of God. will be cast with the old heaven and old earth from His presence forever,  they're works removed;"cast out" from  within the very Life of God. Whom knows the beginning from the end?

So as in the beginning, the earth has passed all creation and even though all whom are not willing to be with God for all eternity are there in the burning fire.  To those whom stand that  eternal day in the Presence (LIFE) of God. That all the old will be as a formless and void and will remember them not....

The New Heaven and The New Earth are complete and new; no need of covenants or covenants made on the firmaments made of the old heaven from the firmaments of the old earth. From the times when we could talk to God...........

We will then talk with God,

Bless you in Christ Jesus, amen

but we can still talk to God now, Jesus has bridged the gap between God and us.

Oh yes indeed! We have the Divine privilege of speaking "directly" to God because we have "become" God's dear children through regeneration by the BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST!!! Ephesians 3:11,12--"According to the Eternal Purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus OUR LORD: In Whom we "have" ACCESS with confidence by the Faith of HIM!!!! Notice the present tense--we "have" Access to God "directly" right now! In fact, "prayer" is one of the key topics of the Scriptures because our God "desires" daily communion with His people--Halleluiah!

Prayer travels at the speed of sound; but is recieved at the speed of Light.

The eschatological inconsistencies of this thread are amazing.  How can you guys believe that we can talk directly to God and be so sure about it if Christ did not yet come back? 

The "we have access" in Ephesians is consistent with the curtain in the temple being torn, yet for the sake of eschatological consistency, you cannot possibly claim that we are already in the holy of holies if you continue to claim that Christ did not yet return.

Frank good to meet you.

To talk too God is to testify in Christ. Lest your works be without your name found with that of the Lamb of God Himself; as is "The Lambs Book of Life". for without Jesus sin dept, salvation for your very soul will never be with God, in as far as much as even to be present to talk with God.

I do so ever point out, that our hearts and prayer as to every thought even while we contend with the flesh, through Christ speaks to the Father.

When considering the differance as our Lord presents us not unto desolation; but into the Glory of God the Father. amen

Eschatologically speaking, do you or I speak to God or do we speak with God? There is a differance, are we to be "as gods" as in Genisis 3:5
or are we to be found to be Gods own..... 

All High is the name of the Lord Jesus

Maybe a better question would be :

Can you hear God when He speaks to your inner man??

Today, God speaks through His word - the Bible.

If you are willing to let God talk to you, read the Bible.

Hello Tallyn,
This is true, but this isn't the only way God speaks to us. This would put limits on God. But God is not and can not be bound by anything other than His promises, because He can not tell a lie. You wouldn't suggest that God can not speak to man in an audible voice would you?? Or would you??

Why, do you hear voices that tell you when Christ will return?

Hi Frank,
I wonder why you are already in a bad mood. Did someone put some vinegar in your coffee?? Or are you always just a negative type of guy?? To each his own I guess 

Well, I can't make the claim of ever hearing God speak in an audible voice, because He hasn't spoke to me that way, not yet anyway. But several times I have heard the still small inner voice of the Holy Spirit. And as far as God telling someone when Christ will return, I wouldn't hold your breath waiting. Jesus said that the angels didn't know, or the Son, but only the Father.

God is with me before the foundate of this very earth. God is with me even now as I speak. God can even see me after I will have found death in that day. At this same moment. He knows all things of me, as too everyone of us. Our knowledge is this for we are made, in His likeness.

God; His Knowledge complete being had fully honest, makes Him my Judge.

In Christ

If we want to have a relationship with God we must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We have to have heard the gospel, believed the gospel, confessed Christ (Romans 10:9-10), baptized (Acts 2:38-41. Acts 18:8. Mark 16:16. Matthew 28:19-20. 1 Peter 3:21). Upon being baptized we are saved right then and there. To stay saved we must repent (John 14:15). God also requires that we assemble (Hebrews 10:25). We must keep in mind that Jesus Christ is the head of the Church (Ephesians 5:23) and is equal to God. When we become Christians God may commission us for an assignment and if we don't comply we would be in rebellion.

No works at all are required to be saved. Salvation is grace from God, through our faith (beleif) and that also is from God.

So no one can claim to be saved from their being baptised or from any work.

To stay saved we must repent

We repent because we Love God, we are not kept saved through our works of repentance.

(John 14:15). God also requires that we assemble (Hebrews 10:25). We must keep in mind that Jesus Christ is the head of the Church (Ephesians 5:23) and is equal to God. When we become Christians God may commission us for an assignment and if we don't comply we would be in rebellion.

Ephesians 2
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

11 Timothy 1
9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

Ephesians 2
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)

The Romans 11
16 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.

The Romans 3
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

The Acts 15
11 But we believe that through the grace of the LORD Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

John 1
4 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

the earth BECAME a ruin...and yes, God knew each of us back then in the age before the foundation of this present age. That is when He chose the election to fulfill scripture...

Our Salvation is with God and not of this world. The self will  of man after his own kind that dwelt upon the earth:  they whom do not go with God in His work of salvation will be on judgement day said in the bible, be cast from Gods Presence.

I agree that they shall be completely destroyed forever....
