Summary
Jesus teaches that under the New Covenant, believers are always under an oath to tell the truth, unlike the Old Covenant where oaths were only sworn in specific settings. He emphasizes that God is always listening, meaning our words and intentions are always recorded and accountable to Him. This principle extends beyond formal settings into every aspect of our lives.

The speaker advises that to hear God's voice, one must maintain a clear conscience by confessing sins and making amends. Furthermore, regular meditation on Scripture is crucial, as God has provided His voice through written word. Assurance in Christ comes from believing God's promises, such as John 6:37, rather than relying on feelings. Finally, the speaker distinguishes between judging (condemning) and discerning, emphasizing that while we must avoid bad company for purity, only God has the authority to judge.
