Overall, He is transforming the Body of Christ from having been so institutionalised, to being a more relational people. It is all about relationships of the heart. John Alley

Recognition of false prophets, teachers, and apostles for what they are can always be determined by their fruitfulness, as is the case for all ministers of Christ. John Alley

When the godly are prayerful, it is not hard to find the mind of the Lord. And is it not really “found,” for to His favoured ones, it is given! Actively, humbly, seek this grace. John Alley

The gift of the Spirit opens the eyes of the humble and prayerful to be able to see and understand. John Alley

The church, wherever and however it may meet, is responsible to distinguish between the false and the genuine, especially when it comes to receiving apostles or any visiting ministry. John Alley

The weeding out of false apostles, sometimes rejecting and sometimes ignoring them, generally is no different to avoiding false teachers and false prophets. When properly understood, it is business as usual for a healthy local church. John Alley

There must be a spiritual depth that can come from Christ alone, rather than simply the hoopla and fuss over external things. Discerning the difference is an important part of discerning false apostles. John Alley

It should be a straightforward matter for any prayerful congregation, or prayerful city eldership, in all humility, to discern the true from the false. John Alley

But if a prophet or pastor presumptuously claims apostolic office, they trample on holy ground, are blindly ignorant of the authority of Christ who alone can commission apostles, and undermine the progress of the church and other leaders in pursuing apostolic grace. John Alley
