God remains silent. God has to "speak" through man.
The illogical, irrational incongruities are profuse and profound. I believe I "hear" God in my innermost mind when calm and at peace. It is that sense and reminder to do best by and for other people. Nowhere in the Bible did God ever preach a sermon. Therefore the relationship must be one to one. Biblical books, barely books in any sense, are named for the prophets who wrote them. They voiced their inner communication as a warning to others, which is a mistake if God speaks one to one. Why would God tell somebody to tell someone else anything, when He could do it in the one to one way believers believe they hear, or sense? Paul wrote letters to groups. Romans, Corinthians, Hebrews... Jesus taught a small class of twelve. Paul said he worked for Jesus. Jesus said He represented the Father. Throughout all, the Father remained and remains silent. In effort to be less offensive, less verbose, but possibly even more arrogant and conceited, I offer a chart that satisfies MY understanding.
