How Spiritually Mature Christians Discern Who to Trust

How do spiritually mature Christians discern who to trust? Not everyone who's excited about you is safe, and not everyone who hurt you has changed. This video walks through what the Bible says about biblical discernment in friendships, dating, family and church. We look at five things mature believers watch before they trust someone: why Jesus "would not entrust himself" to an excited crowd, how small things reveal character, the parable of the two sons, how Saul and David each responded to correction, and how Jesus gave the crowds, the twelve and the three different levels of access. Christian encouragement for guarding your heart without becoming cold. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 How do you know who to trust? 0:18 1. They don't confuse excitement with trust 1:31 2.
