The True Standard

“We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of Truth, and the spirit of error.” (I John 4:6)

The spirit of error is all around. It is difficult to know the difference in the real and the false. I have been told that in Washington, D.C. there is the Bureau of Standards. There is an exact inch, an exact foot, an exact pound, an exact pint, gallon or almost anything that has to do with measurements. The trained teller down at the bank does not need to know what every counterfeit one-hundred dollar bill looks like. She only needs to know what a genuine bill looks like.

The Bible student does not need to know what every cult looks like or what they believe. He only needs to measure all beliefs against the true standard in the Bible.
