1 John 4:1-3 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. ² By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses Jesus Christ having come in the flesh is of God, ³ and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not of God, and this is that of the antichrist, which you heard that is coming, and now is already in the world.
