1 John 4:1-6 - How To Recognize The Spirit Of God
1 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 ye know the spirit of God: every spirit which confesseth Jesus Christ come in the flesh, is of God. 3 And every spirit which confesseth not Jesus Christ come in the flesh, is not of God: and this is that spirit of Antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and now already it is in the world.
4 Ye are of God, beloved 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.
