What is going on? II ...

Tuesday, Dez 10, 2019. How do you come to conclusions with respect to God? How do you decide what to think about this basic question? We need to talk a little bit about our communication with God. How can you communicate with him?

The question of how to hear from God is linked to the overall situation of humans in general. If God is there, how does he interact with us humans? This is one of the basic questions people have been asking for a long time. Is God a hidden God? Can you live with him on a daily basis? How does it work? What does the Bible say about this?

The question how God is talking to humans is taken up in the bible in many places. The basic answer it gives is that God wants to live with us humans, and he wants to talk to us. He wants to be there, day by day. He wants to be the determining person in our life!

Jesus talks about a story, where people realize that God lives indeed, and that faith has severe consequences. And their conclusion is that they want to talk to their family and friends to tell them that it is really important. They want to send a dead person, to convince them that all the biblical statements of faith are true. But this is rejected by God. Jesus tells us the following words instead:
