First, Try the Word you hear by the Truth. Secondly, Try your selves by the Word.
First, Try the Word you hear by the Truth; if it be not consonate to that, believe it not, let who will preach it. Paul exhorteth the Galatians so to do, (Chap. 1.8, 9) But though we, […] an Angel from Heaven, preach any other Doctrine unto you, than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. How Paul, accursed? sure you speak too high; what if an Angel, must he be accursed? sure you will call in your words again: Nay, instead thereof, he repeats them over again, As we said before, •o I say again; If any one preach any other Gospel, than that which you have received, ⟨image 163⟩let him be accursed. If any man pretend a Revelation from Heaven, and cannot bring Scripture for what he saith, do not believe one syllable. Take the noble Beraeans for your Example; they would not believe Pauls Doctrine, until they had searched to see whether it were so or no.
