在個人層面上，你知道為什麼大多數人——包括你我人生過去至今的大部分時刻——總是不去理會「神的訊息」的最大原因嗎？
除非你願意了解和正視這一點，你可能永遠無法真正看見或聽到神在告訴你的信息和訊息。去正視這一點、認真地檢驗它，是「開啟你的與神對話」之首要關鍵的秘訣！此篇對話可幫助你了解這一點：
聽神談【人類如何「與神對話」的過去與現況】
在過去，你們只是單向地對我(神)說話、對我祈禱、向我訴說求情、哀求我。然而現在，我可以直接答覆你們，正如我現在在做的。
尼爾：但我怎麼知道這些訊息是來自神？我如何能知道這些並不是我自己的想像?
這又有什麼差別呢？你不知道我可以經由你的想像力運作，就像經由任何東西一 樣容易嗎？在任何特定時刻，用一種方法或數種方法，我都能帶給你們完全適合你當時目的之最精準的正確想法、語言或感受(bring you the exact right thoughts, words or feelings)。
你會知道這些話是來自我的，因為你，出自屬於你自己的(of your own accord)，從沒有講得這麼清楚過。如果你已經能對那些問題講得這麼清楚，你就不會提出那問題。
尼爾：神都跟哪些人通訊？他們是特定的人嗎？在什麼特別的時刻嗎？
所有的人都是特別的，而所有的時刻都是珍貴的時刻。並沒有哪一個人或哪一個時刻比其他的更特別。然而許多人卻寧願相信神是以特別的方式只對特別的人說話。這移除了廣大民眾自己擔負「聽我(神)的訊息」的責任，更不用說收到我的訊息（那又是另一回事），使得他們可以在每件事上都聽從別人的。你們認為沒有必要聆聽我，因為你們已經認定「別人已聽過我所談的每一個議題，而你只要聽他們的」即可。
藉由聆聽別人認為他們聽到我所說的，你就完全不必思考(傷腦筋)了。
這就是為何在個人層面上大多數人不理會我的訊息的最大原因。因為如果你承認你是直接地接收到我的訊息，那麼你就得負責去詮釋它們。接受別人（即使有些是兩千年前的人）的詮釋，都遠比你自己要去詮釋你正在收到的訊息來得安全又容易。
然而，我邀請你來到一種與神溝通的新形式(I invite you to a new form of communication with God.)。一種雙向的溝通。
摘自《與神對話 I》第1章
For in the past you have only talked to Me, praying to Me, interceding with Me, beseeching Me. Yet now can I talk back to you, even as I am doing here.
Neale: How can I know this communication is from God? How do I know this is not my own imagination?
What would be the difference? Do you not see that I could just as easily work through your imagination as anything else? I will bring you the exact right thoughts, words or feelings.
You will know these words are from Me because you, of your own accord, have never spoken so clearly. Had you already spoken so clearly on these questions, you would not be asking them.
Neale: To whom does God communicate? Are there special people? Are there special times?
All people are special, and all moments are golden. There is no person and there is no time one more special than another. Many people choose to believe that God communicates in special ways and only with special people. This removes the mass of the people from responsibility for hearing My message, much less receiving it (which is another matter), and allows them to take someone else’s word for everything. You don’t have to listen to Me, for you’ve already decided that others have heard from Me on every subject, and you have them to listen to.
By listening to what other people think they heard Me say, you don’t have to think at all.
This is the biggest reason for most people turning from My messages on a personal level. If you acknowledge that you are receiving My messages directly, then you are responsible for interpreting them. It is far safer and much easier to accept the interpretation of others (even others who have lived 2,000 years ago) than seek to interpret the message you may very well be receiving in this moment now.
Yet I invite you to a new form of communication with God. A two-way communication.
