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.

And how do we test these spirits?

By their Fruits… A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

Would those fruits be polygamy, Mountain Meadows Massacre, and racism....the church continues hiding so much!

By their fruits ye shall know them.

[Abigail Adams]

I agree about the fruits. I think we can also test the spirits by whether or not what they say is consistent with the Bible. And I think spiritual discernment and our intellect can also be used.
