Re: FEAR FACTOR: Pentecostal/Apostolic Style

I think many things false look like the real thing. Take for instance, Coach Purses......there are fakes out there that look a lot like the real thing.

Satan has always put a little true with his lies.

I agree, there are a lot of fakes, but a child of God who is filled with the Holy Ghost should be able to tell the difference, wouldn't you think?

So, how does one tell the difference?

I agree 100% with you. The only way they can know is being sensitive to the Holy Ghost and knowing how to use the spirit of discernment.

Michael, I'm sure you already have some thoughts on how a child of God knows the true from the false but here are a couple of ways I tell...

1) feelings: by the way I feel inside...is there a peace? Do I feel the presence of God?

2) the word of God: does it line up with the word of God? What would Jesus do?

3) dreams: I don't look for some hidden meaning in every dream that I have but there have been a few dreams and a couple of visions I know were of God because they came to pass.
