GREAT QUOTES on DISCERNMENT
"To discern spirits we must dwell with Him who is holy, and He will
give the revelation and unveil the mask of Satanic power on all lines."
- Smith Wigglesworth
"Discernment is not a matter of simply telling the difference between
right and wrong; rather it is telling the difference between right and
almost right."
- Charles Spurgeon
"Know your HOLY GOD intimately. (When you have seen His glory,
His holiness and His love - by drawing close to Him in prayer - then
you can usually see through any counterfeits because you know the
"real thing" so well)."
- Andrew Strom
"With discernment comes division. A person who seeks to be
discerning must be willing to suffer the effects of this division. It will
divide not only believer from unbeliever, but it may even divide a
discerning believer from one who is undiscerning. It will separate
the mature from the immature, the naïve from the prudent."
- Tim Challies
"The man who thinks he can know the Word of God by mere
intellectual study is greatly deceived. Spiritual truth is spiritually
discerned."
- Samuel Chadwick
"Many may boast in the depth of their Bible knowledge and in the
excellency of their theological tenets, but those with spiritual
discernment are aware that it is dead."
- Watchman Nee
"Instead of REPENTANCE, people are getting all kinds of counterfeit
spiritual experiences. There seems to be almost no discernment at all."
- Andrew Strom
"A tender conscience is an inestimable blessing; that is, a conscience
not only quick to discern what is evil, but instantly to shun it as the
eyelid closes itself against the mote."
- Assorted Authors
"The first point of wisdom is to discern that which is false; the
second, to know that which is true."
- Assorted Authors
"Let us, then, cultivate an attitude of courage as over against the
investigations of the day. None should be more zealous in them
than we. None should be more quick to discern truth in every field,
more hospitable to receive it, more loyal to follow it wherever it leads."
- B.B. Warfield
