Not only "on the internet." Anyone, even your pastor, your father, your mother, could have an agenda, contrary to God'sโฆor just be not as smart as they think they are.
And for that matter don't; "just trust" your own feelings. We are not "all-knowing," only God is.
So have a critically thinking mind, even a skeptical mind. Just don't be a sceptic for the sake of skepticism. Demand clarity and results. "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." โ Matthew 7 :7-8
theres a lot of people who feel like they have special knowledge to give to the world, combined with the ability to reach lots of people is a bad combination. they dont have the discernment. also they go to online bible colleges for 2 years or liberty for 4 years and call themselves a pastor. all of these people ive met dont have the emotional maturity when you disagree with them, even on the smallest of things.
AMEN ๐๐ Study to show thyself approved!
