Not true. Not all have heard THE VOICE of the SON of GOD now

Some will hear HIS VOICE later. But that does not necessarily secure that these (who hear HIS VOICE later) will be raised to LIFE

Read John 5
Jesus said "I am the way" , I belive that.

You probably aught to study the scripture a little more before talking down to people.


Ezekiel 36

“I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances."

Joel 2


28“It will come about after this
That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind;
And your sons and daughters will prophesy,
Your old men will dream dreams,
Your young men will see visions.

29“Even on the male and female servants
I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
Actually, you said:
The Father was in the prophets as he is available to all of his children on earth.

This statement is not shown in the scripture you quoted. Yes God spoke through the prophets. He is available to all children on earth too, through the death and resurrection of Christ. Then they can have the Holy Spirit.

Your statement sounds good but is not biblical.

You also stated:

After the Ascension, the spirit of truth was pored out upon all flesh; Father and Son combined in one gift.

Again, this sounds biblical, however, it was not the "spirit of truth" it was the Holy spirit. He is not Father and Son combined. He is one of the three parts of the Trinity.
There is the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not the Father and Son combined.


The spirit was not poured out upon all flesh either. It was given to the believers at Pentecost. This pouring out will come in the future.

Earlier in this thread you stated that:
I don't belive God wrote the Bible books, I belive holy men wrote it.

I'm still waiting for you to tell me where you get your information from if God did not inspire the Bible. What book, or books, do you hold true and base your beliefs on?

You are just being stubborn now.

Job 32-8

"But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding."

The Bible is not one book, it's currently 66. There were more at one point.

I get the news from imperfect news sources, bearing in mind the imperfection of human nature. I view the Bible the same way.

A new religion or ideal arose after Jesus left and that is the idea that, not only is God perfect, but the books that people write about God are also perfect. Therefore man becomes limited and stagnant and he must reject science and rationalism.

Folks, this thread has gone off course and the OP is no longer involved in the thread for pages now.

Please read the Exploring Christianity Statement of Purpose which includes:

Statement of Faith
All replies in this forum must be in accordance with the CFStatement of Faith (SoF). This means that your replies cannot disagree with the SoF. As an example, you may not answer a seeker or new believer's question with a statement that God is not a Trinity, nor may you state that Jesus was merely a very good, human leader. All replies must help the questioner to understand orthodox Christian beliefs and practices, and the theology on which they are based.

.....

Debate
This forum is for discussion of questions with non-Christians and new believers. There are some areas of theology in which different Christians may believe differently. In these situations, we would ask Christians to refrain from debating the matter here. You may point out that there is a differing viewpoint, but please do not use this forum to debate with other Christians. If Christians wish to discuss various doctrines with other Christians, they should do so in one of the Theology forums.


In short, all responses need to be in line with the Statement of Faith and orthodox, and this forum is not for Christians to debate each other. It is a forum for outreach.
