My experience in 30+ years of Christianity is that people's "God spoke to me" experiences are scrutinized just as much WITHIN the body of believers. Almost everyone thinks God is talking to them and telling them a specific thing. The trouble comes when Roger is listening to Nancy share her testimony of what God told her, realizing it conflicts with what God told him. Long before I stopped being a believer in Jesus, I stopped believing in people's personal "Gold told me this and I know that I know that I know" testimonies when it became clear to me how self-deceptive people are in just telling themselves what they want to hear and giving God the credit. Now, when I see someone sharing "the Truth" with an unbeliever, the first thing that comes to my mind is the fact that their "Truth" is not even supported by a consensus among other believers.
