1 John 4:1-3 MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world.

Lamsa⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world. ² The Spirit of God is known by this: Every prophecy which declares that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is from God. ³ And every prophecy which does not declare that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not from God: but it is the prophecy of the false Christ, of whose coming you have heard, and who is even now already in the world.
