1 John 4:2 - Forerunner Commentary

1 John 4:2

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but ^atest the spirits, whether they are of God; because ^bmany false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 By this you know the Spirit of God: ^aEvery spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

3 and every spirit that does not confess¹ that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than ^ahe who is in the world.
