How does one know that what one knows is real, and not just delusions?
Asking for a friend.
To know what is truly real, one must first know what is the truth...
" Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. "
John 14:6 KJV
The Scriptures tell us to "try" the spirits, and put them to the test.
That is how you know what is of the truth or, of error.
" Beloved, Believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2. Hereby know thee the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3. And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. "
1 John 4: 1-6 KJV
