If this spiritual method of communication, which we today call speaking to our heart, if this ability was stronger in that time and growing weaker over time as a result of the Fall, it shows a progression. These spiritual abilities of Man growing weaker over time and also a progression of the methods God used in wanting to communicate clearly with Man. The first method used, Man's spiritual abilities, which included the speaking of God's internal moral code in the conscience and also in what is termed 'the Word of the Lord came and said' (which may have been telepathic non-verbal communication). Second, the giving of the 10 Commands and Jewish religious law. Third, the giving of the Holy Ghost, the writing of the Word in Man's heart by his presence, along side the written Word and the conscience. If so, this shows an increasing in the number and means of the methods used to communicate with Man, because there was a need to do so. Man's spiritual abilities had degraded over time, starting with the Fall.

Here is a post where Don is making it up. If you reread all his posts accusing Esaias, Amanah, and myself of not providing scripture to refute his ideas concerning
Romans 2. He now wants us to believe some conjecture of his own “what ifs?”
Don, conjecture isn’t doctrine. The Bible says the heart of man is deceitfully wicked. Who can know it? But you want us to believe the heart of man is righteous. That we can depend on it to salvation. Listen, your case is weak, and conjecture and teaching from silence of scripture just makes for more stupid teaching. You want us to believe that native Indians during the first century were saved as well as the athenians on the Areopagus? Just because they believed in Wakan Tanka, or Gitche Manitou. All they needed to be is led by their conscience and be “right living” (still don’t know what that means in Don’s context) but I digress. Our boy Don here doesn’t believe fat meats greasy (no Myoglobin in your mash potatoes) Don believes God is a monster. So, since Don no longer believes
Acts 2:38 is mandatory, he has come up with this mess. Don, Aztecs ceased to exist at death. Conscience made unconscious. In other words they never knew what hit’em. Your religious dogma only sees God as a bad guy if He doesn’t obey your ecclesiastical emotions.
