But there are reasonably few scenarios these days where Christians in the West would be expected to *hear* God, no?
Well the report I heard implied that it's fairly standard at least among some evangelical groups. But I honestly don't know, not being an evangelical. "Some evangelical groups" is pretty darn vague too.
I just realized I'm making that terrible mistake of talking about things on the internet that I don't really know much about. And probably getting it wrong and being unintentionally insulting to boot!
Big!Boss's wife once claimed to have heard God, audibly. The message? (I am SO not making this up.) "[Name], eat an egg."
So she ate an egg. (God didn't specify if it had to be raw or cooked, so she hard-boiled it.)
Yeah.
How does one tell if the person speaking to them is God? Is there an introduction? Resumé?
I guess if they tell you to eat an egg, it's god.
I...kind of hope it was actually god. It's so random.
"War, injustice, pollution? Eh. BITCH, EAT AN EGG!"
If God thinks he can get me to eat an egg, he hasn't even begun to get the hang of apostasy. Eat my dust, IJS.
(It would've been better if it'd been a muffin. Just saying.)
