If I told you that God spoke directly to me, on a regular basis, and that He told me that you should only listen to what I have to say about God, would you believe me? Now think about if I had 100 people saying they believed me, now would you believe me?

I'm sorry, no. God told me you were hearing things in the shower.
-
I would not. I don't care how many other people you have jumping onto the crazy bandwagon, I ain't goin.
-
No, and for the same reason I don't usually believe anything people tell me without some sort of proof or evidence. Consider if myself, and 100 other people, told you that the I personally spoke with the IRS and they said you don't have to pay taxes anymore, wouldn't you check with the IRS before you stopped paying?
-
No on both counts.
-
I would find it hard to believe that God wanted us to completely ignore the scriptures we have. There we find that "in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every thing be established" (paraphrased per my recollection). Perhaps 100 people could be considered another witness, but if their only witness is "because you said so", then they don't really count. More important is the witness of the Holy Ghost. Every person should seek that for themselves regarding any doctrine, but especially for a suspicious one.
-
No. I wouldn't believe you even if a million (or 2.3 billion) people believed you. Sorry. I used to volunteer on a psychiatric ward, and I've met one too many people who made the same claim.
-
Sorry, I just couldn't buy that..I would have to hear it from His mouth first and He's not talking to me.
-
No, I wouldn't beleive you because I don't beleive in God. But that's not to say Allah, or Zeus isn't talking to you, right?
-
I wouldnt but im sure you could get your followers to swallow grapefruit. PT Barnum said it best.. "theres a sucker born every minute"

Since we are talking about claimed communication with God I expect you wouldn’t mind if we started off by looking at previous communication from God. If we look at the NT we see from John 1:19-28 that at the time of Jesus there were ONLY THREE that were expected to come, “that Christ, Elias and that prophet”. Jesus claimed he was that Christ, so he has been. About Elias Jesus said, in Matthew 17:12, “I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not”. As for that prophet, Mohammed, a cousin of Jesus through their first common ancestor Abraham, claimed to be him. Did the scripture given to Mohammed, the Holy Qur’an (HQ) prophesy of another to come? Not according to HQ 33: 40 which, as predicted in the NT and according to Mr Pickthall’s translation from the original script, says “Muhammad is not the father of any man among you, but he is the messenger of Allah and the Seal of the Prophets” meaning the last and final one. So, I am afraid, according to scriptures and certainly amongst all Muslims your claim will be regarded as not valid.

I would call cal the nice men in the white suits and ask the psychiatrist to put you on anti-schizophrenic medication.
-
I'd send you to a psyc ward, dude. That's what they do with people who think they're Jesus. Or a prophet.
-
Absolutely not and this is why.....(follow link). http://www.crimelibrary.com/serial4/jonestown/ There were more than a hundred of them too.
-
No, and no.
-
It would depend entirely on what you had to say. Even if a 100 or a 1000 believed you, if you spoke any new prophecy or supposed word from God that didn't line up with the Bible, I would have to say that I wouldn't believe you.
-
i'd beleive you if you could tell me what the next winning lotery numbers are.
-
I'd have to listen to what you had to say first, beofre I could answer your question.
-
Nope, because you added "you should only listen to me". You think God only speaks in your ear? Big red flag there. As for the other 100 people, I'm thinking they are desperate to hear anything.
-
No. But I am atheist so maybe that has something to do with it ;).
-
There are many groups who profess that someone - usually an individual - has a direct line to god, they call this a cult. Why would I believe a cult with a hundred followers ?
-
Nope I wouldn't believe you, anymore then I believe the other crazy people that have already told me they talk to god or hear voices.
-
Only if he was there to back you up too.
-
Chalrie Manson did what you say.
-
Ever heard of Jim Jones?
-
Nope. If you knew God you would know that God would never do that.
-
Depends what He told you. The number of people believing you, unless they knew you previously, hopefully would not affect me concerning you.
-
This has already been done. Once by Moses and once again by Neale Donald Walsch.
-
It depends on what was said to you and what you said to me. If what you said to me lined up 100% with Scripture, without the slightest deviation, then I may look into what you said. It wouldn't matter if a 1000 people believed you, I would still compare with Scripture what you said. That's one of the main ways the pastors of the mega-churches or cults, deceive the masses. Nobody bothers to read the Bible for themselves to see if the truth is being preached. They simply believe everything they say. Acts 17:10-11 "The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so." Paul commended the Bereans for comparing everything he said with Scripture. All Christians should do that.
-
I would argue that the god spoke to me and told me that YOU were about to come up with false claims and that I should not listen to you.......Would you believe me?
-
No I would say ur full of s**t
-
No i believe that God still reveals himself to modern day Prophets.
-
I would believe you...................were mentally ill.
-
I would ask you what he says to you. I believe God speaks to me and no one believes me so I doubt they would believe you unless you started quoting the bible.
