1 Thess 5:21
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Here are 12 quick points with scripture that we can use to test others that may try to deceive us, who teach in a ministry, are a claimed believer / preacher we may encounter as we do ministry ourselves!
Ask this about them in your testing process to learn to discern:
1) Do they have a biblical gospel / what is the gospel they proclaim?
Galatians 1 ( wrong gospels are accursed )
2) Who do they claim Christ is?
John 1:1-14
3) Have they come out of the world?
John 17 ( His people are not of the world )
4) Do they keep pagan ways? ( Christmas / Easter )
2 Thessalonians 2:15
5) Do they teach biblical dress and head covering?
1 Corinthians 11:1-16 / 1 Timothy 2 / 1 Peter 3
6) Do they sell God's Word/ truth?
John 2 ( Jesus and the whip )
7) How do they view sin/ obedience/holiness to salvation? ( are they of Calvinist / easy believe theology )
Hebrews 5:9 / Hebrews 12:14
8) Are they feminized / do they promote lady teachers?
Genesis 3 / 1 Corinthians 14
9) Are they ecumenical? ( linked to other false denominational groups ) 2 Corinthians 6:14
10 ) Do they play to the flesh? ( instrumental music, fleshly lives, tv / media / sports etc )

11) How do they view the bible / Word of God or do they down play it?
