Instead, test them. See whether the spirit they have is from God, because there are many false prophets in the world. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>This is how you can recognize God's Spirit: Every person who declares that Jesus Christ has come as a human has the Spirit that is from God. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>But every person who doesn't declare that Jesus Christ has come as a human has a spirit that isn't from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist that you have heard is coming. That spirit is already in the world. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>Dear children, you belong to God. So you have won the victory over these people, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>These people belong to the world. That's why they speak the thoughts of the world, and the world listens to them. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>We belong to God. The person who knows God listens to us. Whoever doesn't belong to God doesn't listen to us. That's how we can tell the Spirit of truth from the spirit of lies.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>Dear friends, we must love each other because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born from God and knows God. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>The person who doesn't love doesn't know God, because God is love. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>God has shown us his love by sending his only Son into the world so that we could have life through him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>This is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the payment for our sins. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>Dear friends, if this is the way God loved us, we must also love each other. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>No one has ever seen God. If we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>We know that we live in him and he lives in us because he has given us his Spirit. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>We have seen and testify to the fact that the Father sent his Son as the Savior of the world.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>God lives in those who declare that Jesus is the Son of God, and they live in God. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>We have known and believed that God loves us. God is love. Those who live in God's love live in God, and God lives in them. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>God's love has reached its goal in us. So we look ahead with confidence to the day of judgment. While we are in this world, we are exactly like him [with regard to love]. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>No fear exists where his love is. Rather, perfect love gets rid of fear, because fear involves punishment. The person who lives in fear doesn't have perfect love. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>We love because God loved us first. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>Whoever says, "I love God," but hates another believer is a liar. People who don't love other believers, whom they have seen, can't love God, whom they have not seen. <span class="reftext"><a href="/1_john/4-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>Christ has given us this commandment: The person who loves God must also love other believers.</p></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">GOD'S WORD&reg; is a copyrighted work of <a href="//www.godsword.org" target="_top">God's Word to the Nations</a>.
