VerseTrace
Know what you were just taught.
VerseTrace reads a message claim by claim and weighs each one against Scripture — and shows you the verses, so you can check the check.
It weighs the claim, not the person. A trace is a Scripture-anchored reading of what was
taught, offered in love. It is not a verdict on anyone's heart, standing, or ministry — and it is
never a substitute for your pastor.
Real traces, and what they found
These ran through the same engine that ships in the app. Nothing here is staged.

Sound
Believers must not tamper with, pervert, or sugarcoat the gospel to make it more acceptable.

“But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you…”
Examine
Personal testimony to Christ's transforming work, though valuable and biblical, is not itself the gospel.
