Is his voice the voice that uttered the Torah at Mount Sinai? Is it the voice of his Spirit inside of you? Is it the voice of Yeshua as largely recorded in the red letters of the Testimony of Yeshua, or is it the entire Word of Elohim called the Scriptures?<\/p>\n<p>If his voice is all of the above, then should any parts aspects of his voice\u00a0contradict with any\u00a0other?<\/p>\n<p>If we have a theology where one aspect of YHVH\u2019s voice contradicts with and another and we believe something he has said\u00a0has been \u201cdone away with,\u201d then what does this imply about the mind and nature of YHVH? There is a psychological term for this. It is called schizophrenia, a dual or multiple personality disorder or insane.<\/p>\n<p>Now we would never dare label YHVH with such\u00a0terms, for to do so would be blasphemy, yet many of our religious beliefs make YHVH into something that he is not, and we risk become an unwitting party to attaching this blasphemous labeling to the Almighty Creator if we subscribe to these false theologies.<\/p>\n<p>One things is certain. YHVH is not a liar, nor does he ever contradict himself. If there seems to be a problem with inconsistency in YHVH\u2019s Word the problem is with our \u00ad<i>mis<\/i>understanding or <i>mis<\/i>interpretation of it, and NOT with the actual Word or voice of YHVH!<\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Are you a blasphemer?
