"The Spirit of God may be known in this way. Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has arrived in the flesh is of God;"
— 1 John 4:2, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:”
“Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: ”
“By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,”
“By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses Jesus as the Christ who has come in the flesh is from God,”
“By this is the spirit of God known. Every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:”
“By this you may have knowledge of the Spirit of God: every spirit which says that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God:”
“Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:”
Most beloved, do not be willing to believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are of God. For many false prophets have gone out into the world.
The Spirit of God may be known in this way. Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has arrived in the flesh is of God;
and every spirit who contradicts Jesus is not of God. And this one is the Antichrist, the one that you have heard is coming, and even now he is in the world.
Little sons, you are of God, and so you have overcome him. For he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
They are of the world. Therefore, they speak about the world, and the world listens to them.
