Of course it's all well and good to "consider what people say."

Ultimately none of that matters. What matters is what God says in Scripture and makes come alive in your heart through the Holy Spirit.

May God lead your study.

"It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." -- John 6:63

Indeed it is true that what anyone says, does not matter ultimately...,...but I take what people say, and then weigh it against, what I read in the Bible, and try to test it’s veracity.... and I do believe that what comes alive in my heart will be through the Holy Spirit....

But of course, regardless of which side I come down on, there will be those, with whom I disagree, who will say I was listening to a spirit other than the Holy Spirit, and there will be others, with whom I may agree, that will say, I was listening to the Holy Spirit....

And so it will go on...

Anyway thanks for your good wishes for me...
