Living4God,

Ok, I can see that I misunderstood you. Can you see because of the title of your thread how someone might have been confused? Perhaps whether or not the canon is closed is best reserved for another thread, but I believe that God speaks to us personally on our Mt. Sinai with Him after the wind and thunder (distractions) die out. If Elijah is any example, then climbing that mountain is necessary to hear His voice. I have had strange things happen in my life, the most notable of which is when I felt the hand of an angel containing me when I nearly fell off a precipice. It's sort of humbling to realize that God won't fit into our preconceived notions of Him and will, in fact, confound them. Bowing before God's sovereignty is perhaps the greatest honor that can be had in this life and we ought to do it often and habitually.

Living4God, as far as the Scriptural reference for God speaking to us, I would cite:

John 10:27
My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.

Exegesis: This statement applies to the sheep of Christ in all ages. Being "in Christ" can be defined as listening to and knowing His voice and following Him. I hope this helps.
