Ok, so I was chatting with my wife recently about this issue, hearing the voice of God.
Some people have claimed to have heard the voice of God, but I don't think that is even possible.
One thing that had me stumped, though, was when Jesus and the 3 disciples went on the mount to witness the Transfiguration. Now, I know that this was a vision because Jesus says" Tell the vision to no one", but in that vision they hear the voice of God.
But Jesus also said that "Ye have neither heard his voice at any time,nor seen his shape." John 5:37
I guess my question is...Did the Disciples hear God's voice and no one else did?
Hope that question wasn't worded too strangely.
Thanks,
Shaine

Deu 4:12 and Yahweh spoke to you from the midst of the fire; you were hearing the sound of words, yet you were not seeing a physical representation, nothing except a voice.(CLV)
Deu 4:36 From the heavens He let you hear His voice, to discipline you, and on the earth He showed you His great fire, and you heard His words from the midst of the fire.(CLV)
2Pe 1:17 For He got from God, the Father, the honor and glory of the voice, being carried to Him in such a way by the Glory Magnifical: "This is My Son, the Beloved, in Whom I delight!"(CLV)
2Pe 1:18 And this voice we hear being carried out of heaven, being together with Him in the holy mountain."(CLV)
I was Looking at the very same scripture and trying to get a handle on what Ray says about the voice of God and the messengers voices but these sound like it is refering to the direct voice of God.
