There are many Christian writers now a days, is it safe to assume that what they say is Godly or inspired, or should there be an alternative way to assess their writings?

Romans 3:4: "God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar"
If it doesn't mesh with what's in the Bible, it's wrong. Period.

There is already a way to assess their writings and teachings for that matter:
I John 4:1-3 & Hebrews 4:12.

There was an alternate way, back in the day. Not all "Christian" writings made it into the Bible, and infact were researched, the writers were researched, and all of it was subject to heavy scrutiny before it made it to the Bible.

I would not assume that just because the man is a Christian that his writings were Godly. I would also not exempt the Bible from your scrutiny.

That's a great question. Not everything that people say is "of God" is of God. I recently read a fiction, Christian novel that I thought was a little provocative. But it was easily placed under Christian literature. Sometimes I think that people try to take advantage of a area of literature that is ripe. Money, money, money.

It all depends on what they write. If they write something theological, one could consider it "godly."
