Confused by all the voices?
Normans.
Welsh princes.
Competing claims of authority around early mediaeval Cilgerran Castle.
It was a noisy, unstable world.
Not so different from ours.
Podcasts.
Influencers.
'Experts'.
Outrage merchants.
Everyone certain. Everyone platformed. Everyone right.
In Book of Revelation 2, Jesus speaks to the church in Ephesus - a cosmopolitan city full of competing truth-claims - and says:
“You have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not.”
Discernment isn’t cynicism.
It’s not argument-winning.
It’s not social-media outrage.
It’s loyal, careful love for what is true - lived (according to Reelation 2:1) under the gaze of the Christ who walks among His churches.
In a world of noise, test the message.
Test the character.
Test the fruit.
Because sincerity is not the same as truth.
