Listen and Verify

Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray. Proverbs 10:17 NIV

We've all been subject to bad information, whether unintentional or malicious. It will still put you in a bind as you then have relearn everything the right way. The hardest part is verifying the information to know what's right and what's not.

This applies to hearing God's word as well. If you don't verify what you hear and vet it through your own prayer and reading of God's word, you could be led astray. Some people just don't listen to instructions and those are the most dangerous.

So as you hear things, verify everything through your own reading.
