Does God Communicate With Mankind?

Religions, Cults & Worldviews: Valuable Answers for Valid Questions.

Has God Communicated With Mankind?

There is more than a distinct possibility, rather an irrefutable fact that God has communicated with mankind (male and female). Within each of us is an overwhelming passion to know and embrace a deity of some sort due to the naturally in-born conscience in every man, woman and child.

For the Hindu, it may be 1 of 30 million gods and goddesses, for the Muslim it may be the god, Allah, invented by Mohammad, or for the Buddhist, they may disobey Siddhartha Gauthama (The Buddha) himself and offer worship to him, or for the Christian it is the God of the Bible, the God of all creation Jesus Christ. Even within atheists there is such rabid emotions of anger and frustration attached to their notion that “God is just a Santa Claus” that within them is an attachment to the constant nagging notion that God actually exists! Otherwise why be so angry about a bunch of people believing in a Santa Claus!? Do they ridicule their own or other children to be opposed to a belief in the existence of Santa Claus? Of course not! In fact, they often times embrace this belief in the lives of their kids. But they cannot fathom or stomach the idea that someone else holds fast to the correct belief in the existence of a Creator-God. This they try to stamp out. There is constant communication with all men through creation and through their own conscience that He, God, exists.

So for the animist, some Buddhists, the Muslim, the Jew, and the Hindu, these all have the same communication resulting in a drive, albeit wrongly placed, to know and embrace deity in some way, shape, or form which shows that within each man is a built-in device pulling and drawing them to know God Almighty. For the Bible-believing Christian, we adhere to the reliability, sufficiency, and inspiration of the Scriptures which provides constant and direct communication to all of God’s creation.

First, to the unbeliever, that we are all desperately lost in disobedience, defiance, and deception toward the God of the Bible and opt instead for the delusion that He does not exist OR for a god of our own mind because we simply find Him…unacceptable. This rejection of the King of Glory ultimately results in the eternal separation from Him – which is nothing more than our heart’s wish for our entire lives. This separation is the absolute and complete removal of any and all things that have anything whatsoever to do with God Himself: all things good – comfort, satisfaction, peace, rest – all lost forever as they are/were products of Him! This eternal separation is communicated to us in the Bible as Hell.

God the Father sent His Son to die for this disobedience, defiance, and deception of ours so that as John 1:12 says, “For as many as believed Him (Jesus) to them He gave the right to be called sons and daughters of God, to those who trust in His (Jesus) name” So we see that God communicates the solution for the unbeliever.

For the believer God communicates that His word – The Scriptures:

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [a]instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Believers do not need the mysticism of the Hindus where there are visions and whispering guiding us around by our nose into greater deception, we do not need the myriad of constant man-made hierarchy supposedly acting as “intercessors” between us and Almighty God – like the Roman Catholics do.

We do not need to pray 5 times toward Mecca, go on a mandatory pilgrimmage, or execute “infidels” in a jihad, as the Muslims do. We don’t need to work our way to God Almighty – He has, through His Son Jesus completed the work so that you and I can have eternal life and joy in Him if we are honest about our sin, humble in crying out, and repenting of our former dead fleshly behavior clinging to His finished work on the cross for our sake we can KNOW that we have eternal life in Him. Why? Because He HAS communicated it in His word and through His Word.
