Consider though, how many of those people who said they either saw or spoke to God, were treated in those times. Many of those people were considered crazy, or at least not of sound mind, and there were even some who were outcast for making such statements. I suspect that much the same thing would happen in today's society. If someone came up to you and said that they had spoken directly with God, and he had told them all of these things, would you believe them outright? Probably not, because you had not had that direct experience for yourself.
