How can I know if I'm hearing the truth in doctrine?

Answered in 1 source

To discern the truth in doctrine, check if it gives God all the glory and aligns with Scripture.

Determining whether what you are hearing is truth can be assessed through two primary questions: Who gets the glory? And, is it aligned with Scripture? In John 7:17, it is stated that those willing to do God's will will understand His doctrine, indicating that a heart willing to submit to God's authority is essential for discerning truth. If a teaching emphasizes human effort or glorifies man, it often deviates from biblical doctrine. Conversely, true doctrine glorifies God and aligns with Scriptural teachings, affirming the sovereignty and grace of God in salvation.
