I never said that God‘s direct communication with me was the exclusive means by which God communicates with me. Never.

You have a problem with what Paul is trying to say through these words?

I never said it was exclusive. I said it's not true. And the Apostle Paul is saying in this verse that it's not true.

You will never hear Him directly without the faith to hear him directly.

That is not what Paul is saying, but even if he was it wouldn’t be the first misguided thing that he ever said.

The Bible is one place where God speaking to man directly is fairly commonplace throughout.

How does Chris Hedges know what an "act of goodness" is? Who or what did Chris Hedges put his faith in to know?
Letting go? Sounds like Chris Hedges operates in the blind faith realm. One believing something"has meaning" doesn't mean it does or will.

probably being smart, common sense, being well read into philosophy, graduating harvard divinity school, being friends with famous philosophers like cornel west or famous theologians like james cone, his dad was a minister

an open mind would listen alot to what he says, and then make up your own mind.

See, you think you know better than the Apostle Paul. The New Testament makes it very clear that we aren't in direct communication with God today.

He’s only human.

I'll take an Apostle's word over yours. Please show me in the New Testament where Christians have the ability to speak with God beyond one way prayer?

You've been telling us you communicate directly with God. But the Apostle Paul said "For we walk by faith, not by sight." (2nd Corinthians 5:7). There is no direct communication with God.

I never said that God‘s direct communication with me was the exclusive means by which God communicates with me. Never.

So, when you meditate, and listen really well, God tells you.
How is this guidance and instruction given to you from God during prayer and meditation?

God normally talks to people through their thoughts.
It’s the natural way for him to reach us.

1.What happens to your thoughts when God talks to you?
2. In your thoughts, when God answers or reaches you, how do you know?
3.How do you tell a difference between your thoughts and the thoughts of God?
4.Does God personally/literally inject a thought in your mind?

1. My best guess is I believe when thoughts are from God , this is God speaking and not myself thinking.
2.To test God’s thoughts I believe they must pass the four absolutes. Absolute honesty, purity, unselfishness, and love.
3. Pretty much the same as 2. only a little different.
4. Yes.

I keep forgetting, unlike the rest of us common folk, you get literal and direct revelations from God.

I believe it is probably good not to forget this.
I believe you should try some quiet time with God. Just time talking to Him and then an equal time sitting in quiet listening for Him. No books, just conversation you and Him.

Will find where God told NoIntegrity the homo and homo marriage his ok because God loves them. Later.

You should try some quiet time with our Father in Heaven.

He will help you. He loves you my friend!

Put your faith and trust in Him alone.

Try to say thank you God until it becomes a habit.

Abide in Him as He abides in you!

God speaks through others at times as well as directly to me.

The Bible has some very good instruction and it is very useful at times.

If love encompasses it, it is from God.

God is love.

Do you love as God loves?

You don’t even believe you hear his voice. I pray that you believe and you will receive the hearing.

I caution you to not believe everything that you read. Listen, He will help you abide in Jesus, today and always friend!

He loves you, love Him back!

Listen for His voice!

Make a claim. Blow. Circle. Put it back on the one who questions your claim(s) as if they're is something wrong or lacking with them. It's really old.

I hope you wake up. The fantasy bubble you're in does not exist. I feel sorry for you. I feel sorry for anyone who buys your blow, believes it, and then "thinks" it's the truth. This stuff is nothing but hell bound delusion.
