Jesus Talks To Me.

John 10:3 “To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.”
We heard a lot this last week about Vice President Mike Pence making a statement that Jesus talks to him. He was ridiculed by exiting adviser to President Trump Omarosa Manigault for saying that Jesus talks to him. When Omarosa appeared on the T.V. daytime show called The View Hostess Joy Behar mocked our Vice President for saying that Jesus talks with him. It is my biblical and personal experience that our Vice President is correct and that both Omarosa Manigault and Hostess Joy Behar are both spiritually lost and ignorant to God, Jesus, The Holy Spirit, and the scriptures. Now, some may believe my statement about these two women is unjust but let me remind you it is based on scripture. The truth is that if Jesus Christ has not talked to you then you are lost and damned to eternal hell. This scripture is biblical proof of that fact. Jesus said, “…the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name…” If Jesus calls His own sheep by name, then how can one be saved if they have not heard Jesus call them. Jesus went on to say “…leadeth them out.” Jesus not only calls us but leads us to the saving blood. Jesus went on to say, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:” John 10:27 This is not some sheep but all His sheep. Now I must admit, I have never heard Jesus speak openly to me through my ear gate, but spiritually I have absolutely heard Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, and God the Father all speak to me. They that speak are that little voice inside of you that speaks to you. From His Holy Spirit to our living spirit. This is why God said that if we worship Him we must worship Him in Spirit. “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 See, this is also a biblical fact, worship is spiritual not an outward experience. It is only an outward experience to those who do not have a living spirit in them to worship. Samuel wrote by God’s Holy Spirit these words, “But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7 Rejoicing in the Lord (for a saved person) is an inward act of rejoicing not an outward. Now, it may cause one to react outward, but still that outward reaction is guided by an inward reaction first. God does not work with a person outward, nor does God speak with a person outward, but inwardly. People look at outward reactions, people act outwardly who have no inward reaction. Solomon wrote in Proverbs 16:2 “All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits...Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established.” This is because the Lord communicates to us inwardly and we react inwardly. Now if that reacts on the outwardly with a vocal reaction “Amen” or some other verbal reaction then so be it, but most of what you see from religionist is an outward only reaction. But again, if Jesus Christ has not spoken to you, if He has not led you, if He has not found you and brought you back to the Shepherds fold, then you are not saved. And this little point in closing, if we do not hear the voice of Jesus then how do we follow him? He said in John 10:27 “…they follow me:” how do we follow someone that we do not hear? So, let us understand, we hear Jesus in our hearts, we hear Him in His word, and because He called us, and “the porter openeth” the spirits door, we answer the call of our Saviour. If you have not experienced this call, then you are not saved. You can call yourself, act as if you are all you want, but you are not. So, go ahead and mock Christians, but when they die it is heavens doors they will walk through. I will close with this invitation scripture, “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17 Do you hear Jesus calling?
