This is a two part question?
1.Does Jesus still make personal visits to people in manner that He made to the Apostles Paul and John?
Acts 9:3-6 (Paul)
3As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. 4Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?"
5And he said, "Who are You, Lord?"
Then the Lord said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. F41 It is hard for you to kick against the goads."
6So he, trembling and astonished, said, "Lord, what do You want me to do?"
Then the Lord said to him, "Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
Rev 1:10-13 (John)
10I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, 11saying, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last," F6 and, "What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: F7 to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."
12Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band.
2.Does God still make personal promises to individual people? I not talking about Scriptural promises found in the Bible. I am talking along the line of a prophetic word from a Prophet or visitation from God the Spirit or Son.
I believe the answer to both questions is yes. However, I would like to know the thoughts of others on these matters.
I personaly have seen visions while awake, receive prophetic messages, been touched by an angel to comfort me (I did not see it, but felt it as the Holy Spoke told me unadibly that it was an angel touching me). I have also been visited by demons in my sleep and witnessed demonic attacks upon others. However, I have never a personal visitation from Jesus.
The only supernatural visitation I had came from a demon. I was having a normal dream. I was sitting in a church listening to a sermon from a preacher I did not know. I got up to leave the church. Then all of a sudden I heard a deep voice call me by name, Ryan Matthews sit down. I turned around in the dream and saw that the preacher did not look like himself anymore. His eyes had turned red, his vains where budging out, and he had gained a lot of weigh. I was overcome by fear, so I sat down. GO ahead call me a chump.
This demon straight gave me his full name in a language I could not understand. He then gave me his rank and name of the place he ruled. He called himself prince something and threaten to kill my family if I did not stop a local Bible study that a friend and me had just started. He said that he did not like the fuss I was causing in his domain and that I would have to stop. He actually held a conversation with me in English of about five sentences, but I said nothing return. The funny part was that he was disquise as a preacher in a robe that some pastors wear and standing behind a pulpit while he spoke to me in my sleep. The dream was confirmed by my roommate who had a visitation by the same demon on the same night. Another funny thing was that my roommate was not saved. He told me that night that his wife called herself a grey witch and practiced witchcraft. I actually confronted her about a few days because my wife had been hanging with her off post. Needless to say, I eventually had to change my barrack's roommate and kept the Bible Study going after a one week pause out of fear. I had to seek a lot of mature counsel and prayer to get past it, but I did. Can't nobody ever convince me that this event was not real and did not take place.
Anyway back to the point, what do you guys say about the two questions?
