The Ministry of Discernment

Jul 21, 2024    Dr. Samuel D. Tootle III

The Ministry of Discernment calls believers to heed Jesus’ warning to beware of false prophets and to test all things by the truth of God’s Word. In a culture saturated with deception, discernment is essential for distinguishing truth from error, even when falsehood appears convincing or spiritual. Scripture teaches that discernment is both a gift of the Holy Spirit and a mark of spiritual maturity, cultivated through Scripture, prayer, and obedience. This study reminds us that guarding the truth is not optional but necessary for faithfulness, growth, and the protection of the church.
