Gods Auto Correct - Discernment in Face of Deception

3. Read Jeremiah 23:9-40.

4. How do you know when God is speaking to you? How do you personally discern whether a message you receive (from someone else, a voice in your mind, a nudge, etc.) is from God?

5. Pastor Bill said that in a true messenger from God there is hunger to know God. What are the marks of someone who hungers to know God?

7. Pastor Bill said that the character of a messenger of God is a big deal. Is this true in society in general? Defend your opinion.

8. Pastor Bill said that a true messenger of God will be marked by godly fruit. What are some examples of godly fruit?
