God Hath Spoken!

[GRACE ambassador]

"Did ever people hear The Voice Of God Speaking out of the
midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?" (Deut. 4:33)​

Precious friends, some say we cannot be saved/live for God Today, Under
GRACE, without hearing "God's Audible Voice"? What think ye?

For your prayerful/Careful consideration, encouragement, and edification:

GOD HATH SPOKEN​

"
There is a passage in Deut. 4 which, at first sight, might make it seem that Israel
had one great advantage over us in her relationship to God. It is the following:

"For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since
the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one
side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing
as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?

Did ever people hear The Voice of God Speaking out of the midst
of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?" (Deut. 4:32,33).​

It was indeed a great honor and a great privilege that God conferred upon the
people of Israel as He Spoke to them By Word of Mouth amid the lightnings and
thunders of Sinai. In Israel's case alone, "God Spake all these Words" audibly.
Never before had God Undertaken to address a nation personally.

Ah, but God has since Spoken to all mankind, and in an even more striking manner.
At Sinai He Spoke the Words of the law; now, from heaven, He Speaks of Mercy and
Grace. Some suppose that the case is exactly the opposite. They suppose that the
absence of miraculous demonstrations, the want of Divine Intervention in the affairs
of men, etc., indicates indifference or "slackness" on God's part, while in fact this
apparent indifference Speaks to us More Eloquently than did The Voice of God to
Israel at Sinai.

In his epistle to the Hebrews, the apostle declares that "GOD . . . HATH IN THESE
LAST DAYS SPOKEN UNTO US BY [IN] HIS SON... WHO ... WHEN HE HAD BY
HIMSELF PURGED OUR SINS, SAT DOWN ON THE RIGHT HAND OF THE MAJESTY
ON HIGH" (Heb. 1:1-3).

And today He Sits there still, while neither He nor The Father Does anything to
avenge His brutal murder. God is silent, you say? He refrains from Speaking to
man? If so, it is only because He Has Spoken His Last Word In The Person Of
His Glorified Son, Who Remains At His Right Hand As The Giver Of Grace to a
lost world, on the basis of His Own Finished Work (Heb. 2:9).

This silence is More Eloquent than The Voice That Spoke from Sinai. It cries to
sinners everywhere: "The door of Grace is still open. Be reconciled to God while
you may. Now is the accepted time. Now is the day of salvation"
(See II Cor. 5:14-6:2).

And it cries to saints: "You still have an opportunity to make the Message of Grace
known to others, though it may not be long. Buy up the time; take advantage of
the opportunity, because the days are evil" (See Eph. 5:16). As Sir Robert Anderson
has well said:

"A silent heaven! Yes, but it is not the silence of callous indifference or helpless
weakness. The silence is the pledge and proof that the way is open for the guiltiest
of mankind to draw near to God. When that silence is broken one day it will mean
the withdrawal of the amnesty; the end of The Reign Of Grace; and the dawning
of The Day of Wrath Foretold In Scripture.

God is silent now because He Has Spoken His Last Word Of Mercy And Love In Christ.
He Is Beseeching men to be reconciled (II Cor. 5:20). The One To Whom All Judgment
Has Been Committed, and Who Will Appear one day as The Judge Of all, Is Now The
Savior And Is Seated Upon The Father's Throne In Grace."
