1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 confirms testing prophecy was standard practice

Mike provides additional scriptural evidence for the practice of testing prophecy.

1 Thessalonians 5:20-21 says 'Do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good.' This confirms testing prophecy was a regular feature of the early church, not something unique to Corinth. A prophetic word was not received as scripture or apostolic teaching; it was tested against scripture and apostolic teaching.
