what were the circumstances when God did talk to us?
Gideon
Samuel
this leads to a bigger question that turns a lot of people away from Christianity: If God is real then why isn’t he doing anything now like the Bible claims he did then?
Is 55 cop-out answer
Is 53 gives us the more full answer
all that God had been working toward, had been trying to tell his people to be was fulfilled in Christ
The perfect example is given and his story recorded
Death and all the evils that give it power are defeated
Jesus is God’s final and constant word to all of us
and he is meant to be living on in you and I
If you really can’t hear him then you aren’t really listening
He does speak and work and do anything, he just still isn’t superman. He never was and he never will be a manly image or ideal
