1 Thessalonians 5:20. Despise not prophesyings.
If they are vain and false, despise them if you will, but that prophecy especially which deals with the Word of God, for the Word here does not signify merely prophecies of the future - it is often used of regular preaching. Despise not anyone who speaks in God’s name. He may speak with blunders of grammar - forget them; if he be correct in his teaching of divine truth, if he speaks to your heart, if he warns you, if he warns under the Spirit of God, never despise him.
