Do not stifle the Holy Spirit.
Do not scoff at prophecies,
but test everything
that is said.
Hold on to what is good.
1 Thessalonians 5:19-21 (NLT)
Beloved,
do not believe every spirit,
but test the spirits to see whether they are from God,
for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
1 John 4:1 (ESV)
Do not be conformed to this world,
but be transformed by the renewal of your mind,
that by testing you may discern what is the will of God,
what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2 (ESV)
Warn a divisive person once,
and then warn them a second time.
After that, have nothing to do with them.
You may be sure
that such people are warped and sinful;
they are self-condemned.
Titus 3:10-11 (NIV)
Beloved,
never avenge yourselves,
but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written,
“Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”
Romans 12:19 (ESV)
But when you pray,
go into your room and shut the door
and pray to your Father who is in secret.
And your Father who sees in secret
will reward you.
Matthew 6:6 (ESV)
