But we must also understand that Jesus Christ is the cornerstone, and that His words reign supreme over what any pastor, spiritual leader, or church member says.

John 14:26"But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you."


James 1:5"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him."


1 Corinthians 2:12"Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God."


Psalm 119:105"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."


Proverbs 3:5-6"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."
