God speaks. The very existence of the bible is a constant reminder of this fact. Through the bible we have a record of God’s relationship with humankind that covers over 1,500 years and is recorded by more than 40 authors. There are so many different ways that God speaks to people in the bible and also to us. But everything God says is consistent with the message of this primary revelation that we have on the pages of the bible. Christians are people who seek to live their lives in obedience to this book. At the same time, we weigh everything else we believe God may be saying to us through the lens of the bible.
