Today Someone...God's Spirit.

Dear friends,

Today Someone wants to warn you not to believe every spirit,
Test the spirits to see whether they are from God,
Because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God:
Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,
But every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God.

This is the spirit of the antichrist,
Which you have heard is coming
And even now is already in the world.

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them,
Because the one who is in you
Is greater than the one who is in the world.

They are from the world and speak from the viewpoint of the world,
And the world listens to them.
We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us;

But whoever is not from God does not listen to us.
This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
Thanks be to God.

Amen.

( 1 John 4: 1-6 )
