Does God still speak audibly today?
What is a believer to think about the charismatic and pentecostal influences on our faith? So many people out there who call themselves Christians claim that God speaks to them directly. Is God still speaking audibly today? Much of the New Testament (and the OT for that matter) includes stories of God speaking audibly.
But does this happen today? Should a sound believer expect or desire to hear from God audibly? What about when an influential Christian pastor such as Mark Driscoll implies that we should all seek to hear the audible voice of God and claims that it has happens to him? Should we accept that testimony as legitimate?
Over the next two Sundays, Pastor Jarrett at Sovereign Grace Bible Church will be discussing this very issue. What are the implications of God still speaking audibly today? What are the implications of God not speaking audibly today? What has God told us about this in his Word? The content of those sermons will be reflected here at Sound Church.
In the meantime, listen to the latest teaching in the series on the Holy Spirit here:

I can’t wait. Too many people make statements like “God told me…” but never think about the Biblical implications. And these seem to also be the same people who rarely read their Bible.
