Bulletin
God has always been speaking to the human race, calling us, inviting us, challenging us and communicating His desire for us to be with Him. In fact, He made us to be fueled by Him as we dwell on this planet. If we try to be fueled by anything else, our lives will not run properly. So, God speaks to us to remind us that without Him it won’t work. During the history of Israel, God used the prophets and his mouthpiece to remind them that He is the only way. Today God continues to speak and to call us to decide to be fueled by Him and Him alone.
