Discerning The Lord's Body

Just What Does This Mean?

Discernment in the Bible is the spiritual characteristic of sound judgment for perceiving the difference between right and wrong, good and evil, truth and error, identifying God's will and direction for His people. Discernment is necessary to understand spiritual truth, live a holy life as God intends, to avoid life's pitfalls and dangers as much as possible, and properly govern society.
