Therefore, the teaching of the "three voices" is a useful tool for discernment based on biblical truth as a whole. The challenge for the believer is to learn to:
Recognize where each thought or impulse may be originating from.
Test everything by the Word of God (the Bible), which is the absolute standard of truth.
Reject the voices that align with sin, fear, accusation, and lies.
Accept and obey the voice that aligns with God's character-which is holy, loving, true, and invites us to faith and righteousness.
A final verse to guide discernment:
1 John 4:1: "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world."
