not God's voice according to scriptures at Jn 5:37, 6:46 or H/S at14:17 - twinc
twinc, this is the best answer I have to your question. I hope it benefits you in some way. In Genesis 2:16, scripture says: [16] And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: [25] And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
They both were naked and not ashamed. There was a relationship with God. But then, woman was tempted by the serpent and dragged away by her lust(the flesh) and man joined her resulting in separation of relationship with God.
Genesis 3:7-10 KJV
[7] And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. [8] And
they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden. [9] And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? [10] And he said,
I heard thy voice in the garden, and
I was afraid, because
I was naked; and I hid myself.
God demonstrated in Genesis
that He would provide the cover by slaying an animal. The Old Testament is full of mankind trying to hide his spiritual nakedness through works of the flesh(amounting to as much cover as the leaves they used in the beginning). All of it points to Christ. God's provided once-and-for-all cover that restores the full relationship.
In Revelation 3:18 man is urged to accept the atonement God provided: Himself in an earthen vessel of flesh Jesus Christ (God in the flesh). [18] I
counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment,
that thou mayest be clothed, and that the
shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and
anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
It doesn't say anything about hearing there which pertains to your question of my sheep hear my voice: but Jesus said repeatedly: Mark 4:9 KJV
[9] And he said unto them,
He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Hear what?
Who are those that have ears to hear?
I pray that is you, twinc.
Scripture says:
continue in my word and the truth will set you free. The
truth is Jesus Christ. Who the Son sets free is free indeed.
John 5:36-38 KJV
[36] But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. [37] And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me.
Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. [38] And
ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
John 14:16-17 KJV
[16] And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; [17] Even the Spirit of truth;
whom the world cannot receive,
because it
seeth him not,
neither knoweth him:
but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
The scripture you provided above was directed at those that
did not have ears to hear. If they had ears to hear they would not have crucified Him. If you have ears to hear: Then you are one of His sheep that hears His voice.
"And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd." (John 10)
