Christian "purpose" and "meaning" in life.

[Brakeman]

So he's not a personal god at all to you, he doesn't have time to talk to you in your prayers? Isn't prayer supposed to be communication with god?
Do you otherwise have deep conversations with an unconnected phone? ..

The bible is God's word speaking to me. If I believe what Jesus said as recorded in the bible I have already received confirmation. I don't need him to verbally confirm that I'm saved. If you don't believe in him that's you're choice, but you don't need to tell him what he should be and how he should act.

So a book that you bought at a five and dime is now considered communication between you and god.

Does a copy of "The taming of the shrew" count as having Shakespeare as a close personal friend?

kidding aside, The prophets and the bible authors could not have had the same method of communication as you, through scripture only, so where does the bible explain that your prayers will be different and that god won't talk to you as he did in all the other examples?
