Build and Plant | Discerning God’s Word Among Prophets

One of the issues for God to build and plant in Jeremiah’s time is that Jeremiah wasn’t the only prophet. In fact, there were many of them, and they didn’t all speak for God and often gave a message that was contradictory to Jeremiah. What were the people to do?  We also have people who claim to speak for God in our time, yet we don’t always have wisdom to know who does and who doesn’t. In this sermon, Pastor Joel unpacks what we learn about prophecy from Jeremiah to help us to have wisdom in discerning those who speak for God—when to take them serious, and when to ignore them.
