There is a popular teaching these days that instructs people to seek within to hear the ‘voice of God’, they listen to their feelings promptings, and hunches to guide them in making life’s decisions, and listen to an ‘inaudible’, ‘inner voice‘, they say to know the ‘will of God’ for their lives.
This book will challenge the Christian reader’s said professed confidence in the word of God because once someone has omitted Scripture as the final authority, the person has no way left for truly testing or knowing if something is of God or not. This can become a serious situation for a Christian that very often makes them vulnerable to false teachings, confusion, and heartache.
When Jesus was tempted by the devil in Matt 4:4, He said; “It is written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God”. In the 4th chapter, 3 times Jesus says “It is written”. Scripture is the final authority.
The author has written an excellent book in a Q & A format that deals with the vital matter of hearing God’s voice, godly decision making, callings, and what God’s Will is for the Christian, and gives us a sound biblical way of obeying God’s Will and practicing biblical guidance in our lives. 2 Timothy 3:16,17 says: “All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.” The Scriptures are sufficient - and are a sure foundation.
