Cary Cox, from 1 John 4:1-6. John calls the church to discernment. There is a spirit at work behind everyone who speaks to us, and not every spirit is from God! We test the spirits by looking at the doctrine of the one speaking – what do they say about Jesus? Do they hold to the historic, apostolic teaching of Christianity? Is their message the same as what the world is saying?
