4Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.G27G4100G3361G3956G4151G235G1381G4151G1487G2076G1537G2316G3754G4183G5578G1831G1519G28892By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;G1722G3739G5129G1097G4151G2316G3956G4151G3670G2424G5547G2064G1722G4561G2076G1537G23163and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; and this is the [spirit] of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.G2532G3956G4151G3739G3670G3361G2424G5547G2064G1722G4561G2076G3756G1537G2316G2532G5124G2076G500G3739G191G3754G2064G2532G3568G2235G2076G1722G28894You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.G5210G2075G1537G2316G5040G2532G3528G846G3754G3187G2076G1722G5213G2228G1722G28895They are from the world; therefore they speak [as] from the world, and the world listens to them.G846G1526G1537G2889G1223G5124G2980G1537G2889G2532G2889G191G8466We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.G2249G2070G1537G2316G1097G2316G191G2257G3739G2076G3756G1537G2316G191G3756G2257G1537G5127G1097G4151G225G2532G4151G4106
God Is Love
7Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.G27G25G240G3754G26G2076G1537G2316G2532G3956G25G1080G1537G2316G2532G1097G23168The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.G25G3361G1097G3756G2316G3754G2316G2076G269By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him.G1722G5129G5319G26G2316G1722G2254G3754G2316G649G846G3439G5207G1519G2889G2443G2198G1223G84610In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins.G1722G5129G2076G26G3754G3756G2249G25G2316G235G3754G846G25G2248G2532G649G846G5207G2434G4012G2257G26611Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.G27G1487G2316G3779G25G2248G2249G3784G2532G25G24012No one has beheld God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.G3762G2300G2316G4455G1437G25G240G2316G3306G1722G2254G2532G846G26G2076G5048G1722G225413By this we know that we abide in Him and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.G1722G5129G1097G3754G3306G1722G846G2532G846G1722G2254G3754G1325G2254G1537G846G415114And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son [to be] the Savior of the world.G2532G2249G2300G2532G3140G3754G3962G649G5207G4990G288915Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.G3739G302G3670G3754G2424G2076G5207G2316G2316G3306G1722G846G2532G846G1722G231616And we have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.G2532G2249G1097G2532G4100G26G3739G2316G2192G1722G2254G2316G2076G26G2532G3306G1722G26G3306G1722G2316G2532G2316G1722G84617By this, love is perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.G1722G5129G3326G2257G26G5048G2443G2192G3954G1722G2250G2920G3754G2531G1565G2076G2532G2070G2249G1722G5129G288918There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.G2076G3756G5401G1722G26G235G5046G26G906G1854G5401G3754G5401G2192G2851G1161G5399G5048G3756G5048G1722G2619We love, because He first loved us.G2249G25G846G3754G846G4413G25G224820If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.G1437G5100G2036G3754G25G2316G2532G3404G846G80G2076G5583G1063G25G3361G846G80G3739G3708G4459G1410G25G2316G3739G3708G3756G370821And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also.G2532G5026G1785G2192G575G846G2443G25G2316G25G846G80G2532
