Auditory hallucinations are not a result of this, your holy spirit but of the mind. undecided

2. Visual hallucinations are also a result of mental stress. undecided

The Holy Spirit is not stereotype in means of communication. He is the free spirit of God and so, is dynamic in fellowship with believers. Hallelujah

God speaks through visions, dreams, whispers.
He speaks through bible verses pertaining to your situation.
Sometimes through songs, you may find yourself waking up with a familiar song or new tune/lyrics.
You just have to keep praying and be aware of yourself to be able to identify his voice.

Many Pastors lie today and attribute it to Holy Spirit. One said holy spirit told him he will become president after Buhari but he scored 1 vote in primary
Change that "many" to most.

What you said is just what you wish it to be. Facts cannot change from being facts just because someone disputes it.

Your name is derived from Lucifer the father of all lies. So I don’t expect anything truthful from you.

It's not God.

How will a Christian know that the Holy Spirit spoke to them?

What are the channels?

Also, can the holy Spirit flashback a Christian?
Understanding the Word of God, abiding and heeding is paramount to true christian life, living and spiritual growth.


The Holy Spirit bears witness with our spirit and ministers that which is of Christ Jesus to our spirit.
There are two channels basically if I'm not mistaken and it's through God's Word and through your spirit man.
If you follow the Scripture and those who had the experience of Him as written in the Holy Bible.



The Holy Spirit does not do flashback if by flashback you mean bringing back past events into remembrance.
That is being done by God through what is referred to as ministering spirits(Angels).
Though not all ministering spirits are of God and that's why Scripture says, "Tests all spirits."

The way I believe holy spirit speaks to us is that every steps make and every thought of your heart will only lead you to the right part, even before you talk to people what will come out of your mouth will work for your own good even it sounds stupid at first.

Religious People don't read...

1.For biblical Jesus, he's a comforter who will teach you all things; putting into context, his relevance in your time of mourning, confusion, failed business, etc

2. For some, he speaks through execution;
See punishment for ananias and Sapphira

3. For some, he speaks through strange tongues or litanies

Holy spirit speaks to you 24 7. The way your life is going is the communication from the holy spirit. Just observe your life and your surroundings. If you are driving and you enter a head on collision that destroys your car ? That's the holy spirit trying to tell you that you are on the path to destruction. If you are committing adultery and catch gono, that's the holy spirit trying to tell you that you will burn for this sin, if someone steals your money that's the holy spirit trying to keep you as a prisoner because money is freedom. Why keep you as prisoner ? Maybe it wants your attention to teach you something but the money is distracting you etc etc etc. everything happening to you is a communication from the holy Spirit

Through the word of God.......
The conformation of the HOLY-SPIRIT speaking/speaks can be backed up by the word of God.

The Holy Spirit can speak to you through:
Dreams, through his ministers(separate me Paul and Barnarbas for the work which I called them for), through visions(like Paul's vision to the call of Macedonia), through inner nudging, through the Holy Scriptures, and others.

➜can you remember anything when your mom dropped you safely on your first cradle bed? I need a subtle answer before you fall into a trance.
No, I lost connection to much of that memory. But I am aware that some can remember even their time in their mother's womb. What does that have to do with anything? undecided

Encounter auditory and visual hallucinations? I have, numerous times, too. These phenomena are in no way unique to your religion and have nothing to do with one having a god-delusion or not. undecided

"GOD IS SPIRIT IN SECRET, ALWAYS SPEAK TO HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN SECRET", JESUS TAUGHT.

THEREFORE, MAJESTIC MYSTICISM IS COMMUNING WITH GOD IN FAITH, HOPE, PEACE AND LOVE IJN.

Aside the things already written in holy books. The truth is nobody knows exactly how else God speaks with people.

Some would say through vision, some would say through inner feelings, some would say through dreams, some would say through interpretation of signs and circumstances, some would say through other people. Etc.

But the truth is nobody actually knows. And that’s why it’s easier to mistake things for God’s calling.

While there are genuine people of God, a lot of these callings are results of the functions of the nervous system and hormones. nothing more.

So if you’re religious, hold your holy book seriously. That’s your most reliable compass
You are very correct, (I'm talking in the Christian sense only please). So while as beautifully pointed out several times above, The HOLY GHOST speaks through Scriptures, the inner witness ( meaning feelings, peace, restraint), through godly, and even, in at least one special instance, ungodly people (1 Kings 13:20-24), visions, dreams, audible voice, prophecies, and trances.
However, like you pointed out, it's possible to think your own internal thoughts etc are the voice of The LORD. How then do you make sure of this? Hebrews 5:14. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
So, it's practice that makes you more able to know more accurately when GOD is speaking to you. Hence the need to walk and fellowship with GOD. When you do this, you will be one of HIS sheep who hear HIS voice. John 10:27
Recall that Samuel was mistaken in thinking Eliab was The LORD's anointed. May I say, before all this becomes an issue, the first step is to gain salvation with GOD, through faith in The LORD JESUS CHRIST. Shalom everyone.

There is nothing unique in it since it has been discovered that 10s of millions experience it daily and most of them do not have a god-experience. undecided

Assuming it is not a scam as you said, will you accept Christ because of this?
