À propos de cet audio

Scripture commands believers not to believe every spirit, but to test the spirits to see whether they are from God (1 John 4:1). In an age saturated with sermons, podcasts, social media clips, conferences, and Christian content, biblical discernment is not optional—it is a spiritual responsibility. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins explains why testing teaching is a command, not a preference. He lays out a clear, Scripture-centered framework for evaluating teaching, examines why discernment has become more difficult in the digital age, and warns of the serious consequences when Christians fail to test what they hear. This episode is not about cynicism, controversy, or naming names. It is about submission to the authority of God's Word, faithfulness to Christ, and love for the church. Discernment is not suspicion—it is obedience shaped by Scripture and humility. Key Scriptures: 1 John 4:1; Acts 17:11; 1 Thessalonians 5:21; 2 Timothy 2:15; Matthew 7:15–20; Ephesians 4:14; Galatians 1:6–9; Hebrews 5:14; John 17:17.
