1 John 4:1-3 Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but put the spirits to the test to see whether they are from God; for many false teachers have gone out into the world.

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but put the spirits to the test to see whether they are from God; for many false teachers have gone out into the world. ² The test by which you may recognize the Spirit of God is that every spirit which acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come as man is from God, ³ and that no spirit is from God which does not acknowledge this about Jesus. Such is the spirit of the anti-Christ; of whose coming you have heard, and it is already in the world.
