Test the Spirits
4Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.G272By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,G1722G3739G5129G1097G4151G2316G3956G4151G3670G2424G5547G2064G1722G4561G2076G1537G2316
3and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already.G2532G3956G4151G3739G3670G3361G2424G5547G2064G1722G4561G2076G3756G1537G2316G2532G5124G2076G500G3739G191G3754G2064G2532G3568G2235G2076G1722G2889
4Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.G5210G2075G1537G2316G5040G2532G3528G846G3754G3187G2076G1722G5213G2228G1722G2889
5They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them.G846G1526G1537G2889G1223G5124G2980G1537G2889G2532G2889G191G846
6We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.G2249G2070G1537G2316G1097G2316G191G2257G3739G2076G3756G1537G2316G191G3756G2257G1537G5127G1097G4151G225G2532G4151G4106 G25G240G3754G26G2076G1537G2316G2532G3956G25G1080G1537G2316G2532G1097G2316
God Is Love
7Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.G278Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.G25G3361G1097G3756G2316G3754G2316G2076G26
9In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.G1722G5129G5319G26G2316G1722G2254G3754G2316G649G846G3439G5207G1519G2889G2443G2198G1223G846
10In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.G1722G5129G2076G26G3754G3756G2249G25G2316G235G3754G846G25G2248G2532G649G846G5207G2434G4012G2257G266
11Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.G27G1487G2316G3779G25G2248G2249G3784G2532G25G240
12No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.G3762G2300G2316G4455G1437G25G240G2316G3306G1722G2254G2532G846G26G2076G5048G1722G2254
13By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.G1722G5129G1097G3754G3306G1722G846G2532G846G1722G2254G3754G1325G2254G1537G846G4151
14And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.G2532G2249G2300G2532G3140G3754G3962G649G5207G4990G2889
15Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.G3739G302G3670G3754G2424G2076G5207G2316G2316G3306G1722G846G2532G846G1722G2316
16So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.G2532G2249G1097G2532G4100G26G3739G2316G2192G1722G2254G2316G2076G26G2532G3306G1722G26G3306G1722G2316G2532G2316G1722G846 
17By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world.G1722G5129G3326G2257G26G5048G2443G2192G3954G1722G2250G2920G3754G2531G1565G2076G2532G2070G2249G1722G5129G2889
18There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.G2076G3756G5401G1722G26G235G5046G26G906G1854G5401G3754G5401G2192G2851G1161G5399G5048G3756G5048G1722G26
19We love because he first loved us.G2249G25G846G3754G846G4413G25G2248 
New Testament
20If anyone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.G1437G5100G2036G3754G25G2316G2532G3404G846G80G2076G5583G1063G25G3361G846G80G3739G3708G4459G1410G25G2316G3739G3708G3756G3708
21And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.G2532G5026G1785G2192G575G846G2443G25G2316G25G846G80G2532
