Be careful What You Hear
Jesus said that the fruit of a persons life expose their intentions. He warns us to watch out for false prophets, people seeking to elevate themselves, those that are pride motivated, who's intentions are personal of nature, not God centered.
Truth not every voice we hear is from God
Ways to evaluate a word.
. 1. Is it motivated out of love
2. Is it clear
3. Does it line up with God's word
Remember this "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble." James 4:6
15 “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. ~Matthew 7:15-18
