    On the sheets that he passed out it said that he did not need to be cited and was not copywrite...I would love to get a hold of some of his other articles if anyone knows how to get them!

    It doesn't matter. You can't quote someone else's work as your own.
    That still is unethical and wrong.
    You must give credit to everything you post.
    You normally give reference to Scripture you quote don't you. :)

    It is copyrighted, and may "provisionally" be used:

    Credit must be given. Read the Copyright page.

    Then read the copyright policy of this board.

    First, I don't know where you are quoting from. It is unethical to quote without giving your source. :)
    If we are talking about the same thing I am referring to the same site that Awaken was originally accused of taking her material from.

    But more importantly, copyrighted or not, one cannot post something and pretend it is their work, when it is not. I have many works, papers, etc., that are not copyrighted. That doesn't give me the right to copy their words as my own. I must give credit where credit is due. That is exactly what the Bible says.

    Again, you are right! I should have given credit to the writer! But I did not get the paper from that sight! That sight got it from the same source or Root's website. Root's website did not have a copywrite...he wants us to share his material. Our teacher got permission from him personally. Now can we get back to discussing hearing from God!

    If this is the website in question that is not true.
    http://www.precious-testimonies.com/Exhortations/u-z/VoiceOfGod.htm
    Precious Testimonies
    How to Hear the Voice of God by Dave Root.

    On this same page, at the bottom is a link to copyright information:

    It sounds fairly clear.
