Summary
Devotion: How Important is Discernment? Acts 20:28-31
Are we relying on the Word of God or feelings? Is it too much to call for constant discernment and guarding the truth? If Paul spent 3 years not ceasing night or day to admonish every one with tears over this topic, then this is a very important topic. Jesus, Peter, Paul and John warned us, are we listening to the warning?
