How Do You Know if God is Speaking to You?
In Christianity there is no end of people claiming God told them this or God told them that. Is it always God when someone thinks God spoke to them? I ask this because a poster said God told her that it would be ok to use a cuss word if she wanted to.... Are we prone to thinking God is speaking to us when He really is not and perhaps we are led more by feelings and over active imaginations? Just curious and BTW I've wondered this for a long time so the other post just sort of reminded me. This is not meant to be a reflection on her
