How are you supposed to, for instance, measure the sincerity of someone's heart? That would be necessary to test any prayer.You mean that we might not be able to have complete confidence in the things tat we feel?
The Scriptures say that our hearts are desperately wicked and unknowable, so you can't even test your own heart, much less someone else's.
If I can't know my heart, how can I know that my feelings of guilt even exist, or that they aren't disguised compulsions to wickedness?
I don't need a god to test this, there are people.
