Biblical Answer

Is God really silent?

He is there, and He is not silent. There is no use having a silent God. We would not know anything about Him. He has spoken and told us what He is and that He existed before all else, and so we have the answer to the existence of what is.

God is not indifferent but that He is not silent. There is a philosophic necessity in both metaphysics and morals that He is there and that He is not silent. He has spoken, in verbalized, propositional form, and He has told us what His character is. We have the answer to who God is because He has spoken. God is not silent in the sense that He has not given us any information about Himself. He has given us the Bible, which is a written record of His words and actions. This is why we know God's character and that He exists.

In fact, God's silence is often a sign of His presence and trust in us. When we cannot hear God, it may be because He is trusting us to handle a situation on our own. His silence is not a sign of His absence but rather a sign of His sovereignty and trust in us. We must learn to trust in God's silence and to seek His presence in our lives, even when we cannot hear Him audibly. By doing so, we can develop a deeper relationship with God and trust in His sovereignty over our lives.
