1 John 4:2-6

2By this you know the Spirit of God: aevery spirit that confesses that bJesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3and every spirit cthat does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and dnow is in the world already. 4Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for ehe who is in you is greater than fhe who is in the world. 5 gThey are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and hthe world listens to them. 6We are from God. iWhoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know jthe Spirit of truth and kthe spirit of error.
