That's right. God will not speak to a non-believer. You do not exist in the eyes of God... Geez O' Man, when was the last time you opened a Bible? "UNBELIEVERS ARE DEAD IN THE EYES OF GOD" Didn't you read what Yeshua told his Disciples? "Anyone that does not hear your words, walk away from them." -- Jesus was telling his Disciples. If they want me. they can come to me. And eventually they did!!

If I understand you correctly, God only speaks to people who believe already. Those of us who don't believe won't ever hear him.
Why are you still talking?
As a side note, is anyone else wondering why God would bother sending people who "do not exist in his eyes" to hell?
Nah, me neither.
Tell me again about Saul...he didn't believe in Jesus (who is God) so God (who is Jesus) spoke to him and he was convinced?
Meanwhile Jesus (who is God) had gone down as saying that there was no point his trying to convert anyone and now you're using that to tell me that God (who is Jesus) doesn't speak to people who don't believe in one, the other or both?
So essentially God, an infallible being, tells us he definitely won't do something and since God never lies and is always correct we know that it is The Truth.
Then he goes and does it.
That's OK if he doesn't speak to me, never has, never will. I stopped speaking to him a long time ago.
I kinda prefer it that way.
Now if you could only behave like your god and STFU.
If god doesn't speak to unbelievers, how the hell does he get them to convert? How can "they" go to him if he is not speaking to them?
Either your god is screwed up or you are.
god didn't speak to me when I was a believer, which is one reason why I became an unbeliever. of course, now that I think about it, I would have been worried if I had heard voices anyway.
"How did the christians become christians?"
Their parents told them about it, from the time they were babies. They'd be strange (or unusually precocious) to grow up NOT believing in it. Just the law of averages. If they ever graduate high school, go to some evil liberal college, and learn about philosophy, world religions, metaphysics, logic, they will identify religion as just a hoax. And if they're smart they will figure out how it really works at a much younger age. By the time I was 10, I realized that for some reason, the adults in my life were not really following SOME OF Jesus' teachings at all, in very obvious and blatant ways. And even at that age I could see how that significantly affected her claim as an absolute authority figure (she like, talks to God Himself!) I decided there and then that church-talk was to be taken with a grain of salt.
Just another, you don't have enough faith argument.
Anyone that does not hear your words, walk away from them
