Some of us know it is God’s will for us to become true disciples of His Son, Jesus. Knowing this, in some cases baptised into it, we do not prefer other teachings over teachings of Jesus Christ, but we compare teachings to those of Jesus. Even mainstream teachings such as those taught by Catholics and the founders of Protestantism, we compare to the teachings of our real Lord, Jesus Christ. When God gives us courage for it, we prefer the genuine teachings of Jesus and his true apostles over the later teachings which prevailed throughout most of Christendom. This takes a lot of wise digging down into the truth, following the Holy Spirit’s lead. To this we were called, trusting the promise that if we believe in Jesus and hold to his teachings, the knowledge of truth we gain sets us free.
