Seven Tests For Spiritual Discernment In Confusing Times

Send us Fan Mail Some spiritual ideas don’t sound evil at all. They sound exciting, “deeper,” and confidently delivered and that’s exactly why they can be dangerous. We talk about how to avoid deception in the last days without shrinking into fear or refusing to learn. For us, the goal is simple: pursue personal revelation and real growth while staying on the covenant path and inside the guardrails of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We walk through a set of practical discernment tests rooted in scripture: the law and the testimony as two rails you never cross, why you can’t pry a single verse loose and build a whole theology on it, and why gospel standards don’t change even when the culture tries to move the goalposts. We also get specific about “channels” of revelation, using the Hiram Page warning to show why unauthorized “new scripture” claims should be a non-starter for faithful Saints. Then we bring it down to everyday decision-making: the priestcraft test, Christ’s “by their fruits” filter, and why knowledge without charity is a dead end. We also address a modern flashpoint around Asherah and praying practices, explaining why shiny doctrines that make you feel advanced but not more repentant are often the clearest red flag. If you want scripture-based spiritual discernment, steady faith, and a clearer way to tell the Lord’s quiet voice from the adversary’s loud one, this conversation is for you.
