How did Paul determine ethical and theological truth? Were all
believers expected to be able to 'discern the spirits' (1
Corinthians 12.10)? This 2007 study shows that discernment must be
understood against the backdrop of an extensive hermeneutic, by
which Paul inherently relates ethical and theological knowledge.
Understanding the will of God requires noetic and existential
transformation, in short, the 'renewal of the mind' (Romans 12.2).
Munzinger argues that Paul implies a process of inspiration in
which the Spirit sharpens the discerning functions of the mind
because the believer is liberated from a value system dominated by
status and performance. The love of God enables all believers to
learn to interpret reality in a transformed manner and to develop
creative solutions to questions facing their communities. For Paul
authentic discernment is linked to a comprehensive sense of
meaning.
