> might still be suspicious because as I explained,
See how Jesus quelled this concern Matthew 13:14-38 ERV
:
>So they show that what Isaiah said about them is true: ‘You people will listen and listen, but you will not understand. You will look and look, but you will not really see. Yes, the minds of these people are now closed. They have ears, but they don’t listen. They have eyes, but they refuse to see. If their minds were not closed, they might see with their eyes; they might hear with their ears; they might understand with their minds. Then they might turn back to me and be healed.’ But God has blessed you. You understand what you see with your eyes. And you understand what you hear with your ears. I can assure you, many prophets and godly people wanted to see what you now see. But they did not see it. And many prophets and godly people wanted to hear what you now hear. But they did not hear it. “So listen to the meaning of that story about the farmer: “What about the seed that fell by the path? That is like the people who hear the teaching about God’s kingdom but do not understand it. The Evil One comes and takes away what was planted in their hearts. “And what about the seed that fell on rocky ground? That is like the people who hear the teaching and quickly and gladly accept it. But they do not let the teaching go deep into their lives. They keep it only a short time. As soon as trouble or persecution comes because of the teaching they accepted, they give up. “And what about the seed that fell among the thorny weeds? That is like the people who hear the teaching but let worries about this life and love for money stop it from growing. So it does not produce a crop in their lives. “But what about the seed that fell on the good ground? That is like the people who hear the teaching and understand it. They grow and produce a good crop, sometimes 100 times more, sometimes 60 times more, and sometimes 30 times more.” Then Jesus used another story to teach them. Jesus said, “God’s kingdom is like a man who planted good seed in his field. That night, while everyone was asleep, the man’s enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat and then left. Later, the wheat grew, and heads of grain grew on the plants. But at the same time the weeds also grew. Then the man’s servants came to him and said, ‘You planted good seed in your field. Where did the weeds come from?’ “The man answered, ‘An enemy planted weeds.’ “The servants asked, ‘Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?’ “He answered, ‘No, because when you pull up the weeds, you might also pull up the wheat. Let the weeds and the wheat grow together until the harvest time. At the harvest time I will tell the workers this: First, gather the weeds and tie them together to be burned. Then gather the wheat and bring it to my barn.’” Then Jesus told the people another story: “God’s kingdom is like a mustard seed that a man plants in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds. But when it grows, it is the largest of all garden plants. It becomes a tree big enough for the birds to come and make nests in its branches.” Then Jesus told them another story: “God’s kingdom is like yeast that a woman mixes into a big bowl of flour to make bread. The yeast makes all the dough rise.” Jesus used stories to tell all these things to the people. He always used stories to teach them. This was to make clear the full meaning of what the prophet said: “I will speak using stories; I will tell things that have been secrets since the world was made.” Then Jesus left the people and went into the house. His followers came to him and said, “Explain to us the meaning of the story about the weeds in the field.” He answered, “The man who planted the good seed in the field is the Son of Man. The field is the world. The good seed are the people in God’s kingdom. The weeds are the people who belong to the Evil One.
here are some ways the Holy Spirit appeared to people:
-
Jesus’ Baptism: The Spirit descends like a dove upon Jesus at his baptism in Matthew 3:16, Mark 1:10, Luke 3:22, and John 1:32.
-
Old Testament Empowerment: The Spirit comes upon individuals for specific tasks, such as Bezalel for craftsmanship (Exodus 31:1-5), Samson for strength (Judges 14:6), and David for kingship (1 Samuel 16:13).
-
Pentecost: The Spirit appears with a sound like a violent wind and tongues of fire upon the apostles in Jerusalem in Acts 2:1-4.
-
Samaritans: The Spirit falls upon believers in Samaria through the laying on of hands by Peter and John in Acts 8:15-17.
-
Ephesus: The Spirit comes upon John the Baptist’s disciples when Paul lays hands on them in Acts 19:6.
-
Cornelius: The Spirit falls upon Cornelius and his household (Gentiles) while Peter is speaking in Acts 10:44.
-
Indwelling: The Spirit dwells within all believers at the moment of faith, as stated in Romans 8:9 and 1 Corinthians 3:16.
Seek God and maybe the Spirit may be more likely to appear to you.
I believe the Holy Spirit exists. It is the breath that fills our lungs. It is many things and manifests itself as all things as God is.

> Have you personally experienced every healed pathology to verify that a miracle has ever taken place?
No, thats why I have trust and Faith in God.
He has shown me miracles.
I pray you have the ability to see miracles too.
“Because you have seen me you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
John 20:29
>But a self-soothing psychological effect doesn't validate the claim that an external deity is physically altering reality or healing pathologies.
Have you personally experienced every single healed pathology such that miracles are impossible?
In other words, were you in the room when every healing happened, every hospital, every diagnosis?
https://biblehub.com/matthew/12-24.htm
When miracles happen, the Pharisees will always have an excuse.
they studied only one form pathology/healing process: CABG. Ok maybe prayer doesn't help CABG. What about prayers effect on stress, anxiety, and mental performance?

>>Which storm was it, maybe we can find a video of it online and check the audio.
Can you name all the storms that happened in the past 200, 300, 500, 1500 years? AD 500? Do you have ever piece of recorded weathered history? In every single lat and longitude on the earth running 24/7. This is post Jesus Christ's death btw.
What is your response to this?
>Why do you assume God is truth?
That's the thing about assumptions. Gotta start somewhere with assumptions.
You know in physics, when we discuss stress and strain, why do we assume an infinitely long bar? An infinitely long bar does not exist ANYWHERE in nature. Yet we assume it. Would you deny this whole paper because an infinitely long bar doesnt exist? It's proven it doesnt exist.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352012421006998#s0030
I make the same assumption with God is truth.
> I have seen a zebra in person
Have you seen every animal, every recorded species in this world, have you been to the depths of the ocean to see fish with lightbulbs face-to-face?
> . Are you saying you assume anything is true based on how hard you have faith in it?
Who knows. This may or may not be the case. There's no way to measure it. If someone experienced it and you weren't there, does that make it untrue?
what other service/industry gets paid an advance to provide a service and then when determining whether or not to provide the service (they get to their own claim adjusters) they are fighting to give the least amount of service.
when i go to a restaurant, would i prepay my order and then the service staff fills my water once and tells me to pick up my own plate?
That's a feature of what insurance is.
> All you had to say was that. But in that case, why are there no recordings of it and only unsubstantiated anecdotes?
I said behind but i get why you want to twist it into your words because you only take answers your own way.
>Which storm was it, maybe we can find a video of it online and check the audio.

> Why do you assume God is the truth?
Why dont you? Do you not accept things as true until you have cold, hard proof? Have you seen a Zebra? Have you looked into a telescope and seen every single star?
I assume it because my faith leads me to Believe He is the Truth.
> precise nature of things
Can you measure precision to 1e100000 Kelvin? In other words can you measure nature with precision of 0.000.....01 Kelvin?
> Also, you allude to what he said by quoting the bible but that seems to be a thematic allegory/summary and not the content of what you actually heard.
I felt a similar experience to what is written. Whether or not you accept my experience is a different conversation.
> This would mean others should have been able to here it, right? Is
Yes. As Job recorded it, Abraham, Paul, Peter have recorded it. Even in this year 2026, i can find anecdotal experiences thru many pastoral videos on YT.
> . I realise, given you're religious, that trying to confirm the precise nature of things might strike you as odd, but it's actually very important for understanding the truth of something.
Do you find someone that believes a book and has a personal relationship with God as religious?
> but it's actually very important for understanding the truth of something.
I too am a truthseeker. I know (experience) God as the truth. That helps me a lot with understanding logical conclusions.
example of not being able to take the answer "your way"
Questioner:
>In or outside your head?
https://www.reddit.com/r/spiritualitytalk/comments/1udttex/comment/ou3sj4x/
Response:
I'll take the ignorance as agreement that God can speak directly to Job, to people, and to me.
>In or outside your head?
He speaks like a voice behind me similar to Isaiah 30:21
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”
questions you have asked:
>Are you saying God spoke to you out of a storm?
(Question edited:)
Edit: yep appears neither god nor satan spoke to job. Funny how Satan is bad until god is actually telling him to bring misfortune on someone lol
>I didn't ask for a bible verse. How is god communicating with you? Were you lying?
>How is he communicating with you?
I'll take the ignorance as agreement that God can speak directly to Job, to people, and to me.
>In or outside your head?
He speaks like a voice behind me similar to Isaiah 30:21
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.”
> Not sure. If you meant to say 'god spoke out of a whirlwind' then according to the bible he did. If you meant generally/directly, then no. Can you answer now?
Not yet, let's make sure we're on the same page whether or not God spoke to Job. I'm concerned that responses may be edited to gotta be clear.
Job 40
“Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let him who accuses God answer him!”
Then Job answered the LORD:
“I am unworthy—how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth.
I spoke once, but I have no answer— twice, but I will say no more.”
Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm:
Job 40:1-6
https://www.biblestudytools.com/job/40.html
Is this clear enough that the Lord spoke directly to Job?
>yep appears neither god nor satan spoke to job.
God spoke to Job in Job 38:1 Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind:*
>So does god's voice come from in or outside your head?
I can answer this after you answer.
Are we agreed that God spoke to Job?
