1JO-4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits

whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone

out into the world.

1JO-4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that

confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

1JO-4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ

is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of

antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even

now already is it in the world.

1JO-4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them:

because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the

world.

1JO-4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world,

 and the world heareth them.

1JO-4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that

is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth,

 and the spirit of error.

1JO-4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God;

and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

1JO-4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

1JO-4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us,

because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that

we might live through him.

1JO-4:10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he

loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins.

1JO-4:11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one

another.

1JO-4:12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one

another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

1JO-4:13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us,

because he hath given us of his Spirit.

1JO-4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent

the Son [to be] the Saviour of the world.

1JO-4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God,

God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

1JO-4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath

to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God,

 and God in him.

1JO-4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have

boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in

this world.

1JO-4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out

fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made

perfect in love.

1JO-4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.

1JO-4:20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is

a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen,

how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

1JO-4:21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who

loveth God love his brother also.
