but that's the thing all of you seem to always get wrong. A/S/K is unique to Christianity. All other religions has their deity funnel instruction through prophets or at the very least priests. In biblical Christianity God wants to deal directly with you/no middle man. Their is a vast difference between hearing the words of a prophet and dealing directly with God the Holy Spirit yourself.

Actually their was only John the Baptist and he died before Christ did.
In Jesus told the disciples that He has to leave so the Father would Send the Holy Spirit (God) to interact with all of directly. So He left.. Acts two Marks the 'out pouring of the Holy Spirit.' From that point on God dealt with people on a one on one basis. No prophets! We did have Apostles, but that was only to set up the church. (Remember we are talking biblical Christianity not church tradition.)
