    You are confusing the OT story of Baalam and his talking donkey. Paul heard the voice of Christ.

    Indeed. An amusing comeback for anyone who's ever been accused of talking out of one's ass. :eek:

    Actually, the donkey has better-developed vocal cords than mankind has. What the donkey lacks is the BRAINS to make speech. However, for a brief period, Balaam's donkey was smarter than its rider. I guess Balaam was so angry over getting his ankle scarfed against the stone that he forgot to marvel that his donkey was talking to him.

    My wife says that using a Jackass to speak isn't really that big of a deal. God does that at CrossPointe almost every week!
