1 Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things,...... That are said by the prophets,all the doctrines which they have not the gift of tongues, and all desirable advantages; do not reject them on that account, and refuse to hear them, for so, many useful men may be laid aside, and the Spirit of God in them be quenched; try their gifts, and attend to their doctrines,yet do not implicitly believe everything they say, but examine them according to the WORD of GOD the test and standard of truth; search the scriptures, whether the things the things they say are true or not. Not openly erroneous persons, and known heretics, are to be heard and attended on, but the ministers of the word, or such who are said to have a gift of Prophesying; these should make use of it, and the church should try and Judge their gift, and accordingly encourage or discourage; and also their doctrines, and if false reject them, and if true receive them.
