Truth can only be spoken from someone who understands what truth is, and from that place speak it into the lives of others. Otherwise, they are speaking from what they do not know, and this is dangerous. Wrong information is lethal and damaging to everyone.
As human beings we are of the earth, but as believers we are born again of the Spirit of God. Our understanding of God comes through our spirit man that is in unity with God’s Spirit. Consequently, without spirit to Spirit we are merely looking to discern by our flesh as we relate to God’s Spirit.
The Bible tells us that God is spirit, and must be discerned through spirit. In John 4:23 Jesus said, “But an hour is coming, and is here now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in Spirit and in truth. Yes, the Father wants such people to worship Him. God is spirit, and those who worship Him, must worship in Spirit and truth.”
Error can only be fixed when truth is revealed. In other words, error cannot be made right by another version of error.
John 14:6-7 CSB Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If you know Me, you will also know My Father. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.”
