almost 2000 years?
Do they want to reduce God to silence, because otherwise it becomes difficult for the religions that "govern" by dogmas?

I'm not a Christian, but I have read the Bible and it is clear that the God of the Bible is a very jealous supernatural being. He even admits as much. His jealousy often results in Him smiting people. So I figure that His silence over the last 2000 years could simply be the result of a divine hissy fit. :>)

whilst i substitute into an atheist, I had to return to believe that there substitute right into a God, formerly i might ever dream of heavily reading the Bible. In my case I got here to the tip that God existed formerly I grew to become a Christian and studied the Bible. yet info is yet another count fullyyt. What I evaluate info is extremely of course of no result to precise different forms of human beings. All of my info is rather brushed off with cynicism. The cynic sees no sturdy in something. Love is lust, intercourse is instinct, excitement is endorphins, and there is no God. this is the techniques of the cynic. wish that enables.

I don't know if the Bible is the word of God or no.
I think that God is inside every man and woman,but it's so difficult hear what he say to us.
Here the reason why our planet had many trouble and problems .
Theology is like theory for me,respectable but not the true.

Because God's revelation of Himself and His plan for the world is complete. There is no need for more. The ball is now on our side of the court. What must be done is to understand and obey what God has revealed.
Dogmas are feeble attempts of people to put into words their understanding of God's Word.

God has not stopped talking to us. He has given us the Holy Spirit to help us. It was the Holy Spirit who inspired the writings in the bible. Paul wrote letters to the churches as the Holy Spirit inspired Him. We can do the same today with the help of the Holy Spirit. If we write a letter to someone who is trying to justify homosexual marriage and explain to them the scriptures and they repent and change, that is evidence that the Holy Spirit is leading us to produce fruit for the kingdom through the authority of Jesus.(the Word). Some scholars say that the book of Acts is not finished yet because it includes our testimony today. Jesus promised to work with us showing signs and wonders. Finally the gifts of the Holy Spirit are tongues,interpretations of tongues,words of wisdom,words of knowledge,prophecy,etc. God is still speaking through spirit filled believers and confirming His Word.

Jesus the Son of God speaking Words that His Father gave Him to tell us, said that Moses and the Prophets were liars, more specifically "thieves and robbers" Luke 24:25 and John 10:8.
The TRUTH was told by Jesus the Christ, for Moses gave you not that bread (words) from God the Father.
Moses gave you the bread (words) from God the father, the serpent, the devil, Satan. John 6:32
Moses lifted up (worshiped) the serpent in the willderness. John 3:14
Read Revelation 13:10-18 this is Moses and the temple of Solomon

speaking through the bible is completed- however if you are a true born again, spirit filled Christian, He still speaks to you- through prayer, through other people, through His Spirit. Many times I have been reading His Word, and it is much more than just the written word to speaks to me. People can try to reduce God to silence, but if you really want to hear, He is willing to speak. What you hear Him say, though will never contradict His Word- or it is not Him speaking.

Umm , God hasn't stopped talking. People have stopped listening. God talks every day... to his creation. Oh, I suppose people think because the clouds don't part and angels don't rain from heaven with messages that God no longer speaks. Why don't these people turn inward and listen. Listen being the key word. I assure you God speaks. And Much of Mankind would hear him if they weren't to busy talking over Him asking for things.

Since the day of Pentacost, the Spirit of God indwells the Believer. He's still talking, but He's doing it in a different way than in the days when man had to go find a prophet. Today, He relates to man directly.

Was He mad at us or He's never really spoken to us?
Either ways are not God's alike, since He is a Spirit and not affected by human sins; true?
Is it maybe because we don't hear Him?
Is it maybe because the lines are cut off? Nahhh!
Hence, is it because we don't know Him as such!
Then we better get our sleeves roll up and do something for ourselves, instead of awaiting God's Spell be casted on us!
