It's used in refutation to evidence supporting an argument. You are going to have to give me a more specific example than what you just presented.
LadyForCamus,
I was testing you. Maybe you've learnt something new from it. I don't do it with bad will.
To help, you may think of a Christian saying that another person called a Christian, is not Christian and an atheist thinking they can use The No True Scotsman Fallacy to show how it's wrong of a Christian to say such things.
But that has nothing to do with 1 john4:1. That passage is about testing prophets, not fellow Christians.
