God Still Speaks Today!

This morning I was listening to a message from Pastor John Piper of Bethlehem Baptist Church. As I have been exposed to some of Pastor John's teaching and preaching, I have been challenged to know God in a deeper and more personal way.

The message was entitled The Morning I Heard the Voice of God. The following quote is the one that really jumped out at me:

"What makes me sad about the article is not that it isn’t true or didn’t happen. What’s sad is that it really does give the impression that extra-biblical communication with God is surpassingly wonderful and faith-deepening. All the while, the supremely-glorious communication of the living God which personally and powerfully and transformingly explodes in the receptive heart through the Bible everyday is passed over in silence...

...The great need of our time is for people to experience the living reality of God by hearing his word personally and transformingly in Scripture. Something is incredibly wrong when the words we hear outside Scripture are more powerful and more affecting to us than the inspired word of God."
