Discernment
I just finished listening to an old but good sermon series by John MacArthur on discernment. This is a must listen to by all serious thinking Christians.

The salvation of lost and sinful man is only through regeneration by the Holy Spirit and is absolutely essential; the truly saved person becomes justified by God on the basis of grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone (John 1:12–13; 3:36; Romans 3:23; 6:23; 1 Corinthians 2:14; Ephesians 1:7; 2:1–3, 8–10; 1 Peter 1:18–19; 1 John 1:8. (Borrowed from the Community Bible Church doctrinal statement)
Isaiah 45:11-12 This is what the LORD says— the Holy One of Israel, and its Maker: Concerning things to come, do you question me about my children, or give me orders about the work of my hands? It is I who made the earth and created mankind upon it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts.
Men today do not, perhaps, burn the Bible, nor does the Roman Catholic Church any longer put it on the Index, as it once did. But men destroy it in the form of exegesis: they destroy it in the way they deal with it. They destroy it by not reading it as written in normal, literary form, by ignoring its historical-grammatical exegesis, by changing the Bible's own perspective of itself as propositional revelation in space and time, in history.... - Francis Schaeffer, Death in the City [1969]
