“The Written Word”

In your response, "What The Holy Spirit Does", are you saying then that the Holy Spirit talks to us, or rather, puts on our hearts things to say and do?

Sincerely,
Impressionable Heart

Dear Impressionable Heart,

We aren’t saying either of those things.  The Holy Spirit tells us what to do through the Bible.  The Holy Spirit told the apostles what He wanted for us to know (Jhn 14:26), and the apostles wrote it down, so we would always have the Holy Spirit’s wisdom (2 Pet 1:12-15).  Every verse is the Holy Spirit speaking to us (2 Pet 1:21).
