1 John 4:3-5

Worldwide English (New Testament)

³ And every spirit that does not say this about Jesus, does not belong to God. That is the spirit of the one who is against Christ. You have heard that he is coming. And now he is already in the world.

⁴ My children, you belong to God. You have won the victory over those prophets who are not true. You have won because the Spirit that is in you is stronger than the spirit that is in the world.

⁵ Those prophets belong to the world. That is why they teach about things in the world. And that is why the people of the world listen to them.
