A reader might connect the instruction to test all things with the need to examine both Carney’s promises and concerns about the proposed partnership. The passage encourages careful judgment rather than automatic approval or suspicion.
Read the surrounding context (1 Thessalonians 5:16-22)
Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you. Don’t quench the Spirit. Don’t despise prophesies. Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good. Abstain from every form of evil.
This interpretation is debated. Christians may agree on the call to discernment while differing over whether closer Canada-EU cooperation is prudent or beneficial.
