The Question:

"Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself." John 7:16-17

What principle was the Master teaching here and how can we use it in the discovery or confirmation or truth?

Perhaps some additional questions will get us going here. Where do we look to find the will of God? How is following our perception of the will of God a test that proves the perception true or false?

We are also told that "By their fruits you shall know them." What does this mean and how is it a guide to the discovery of truth? What are the different fruits?
