A close kin to "discernment" is something called "empathy." JDjt: I don't think so John. Empathy and fleshly compassion are close kin. Deliverance in the power
of the Holy Spirit is close kin to real spiritual discernment - for those who want to be free that is.
Christ became like us to better serve us. That is empathy incarnate. I understand, however, that those who are not empathetic will see it as some sort of demon doctrine -- denying its existence even in the life of Christ.
