Chapter 4 | |
1 |
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of ELOHIYM: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. |
2 | Hereby know ye the Spirit of EL: Every spirit that confesseth that YAHSHUA MASHIYACH is come in the flesh is of ELOHIYM: |
3 | And every spirit that confesseth not that YAHSHUA MASHIYACH is come in the flesh is not of ELOHIYM: and this is that spirit of antiMASHIYACH, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. |
4 | Ye are of ELOHIYM, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. |
5 | They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. |
6 | We are of ELOHIYM: he that knoweth EL heareth us; he that is not of EL heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. |
7 |
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of ELOHIYM; and every one that loveth is born of EL, and knoweth EL. |
8 | He that loveth not knoweth not EL; for ELOHIYM is love. |
9 | In this was manifested the love of ELOHIYM toward us, because that EL sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. |
10 | Herein is love, not that we loved ELOHIYM, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. |
11 |
Beloved, if ELOHIYM so loved us, we ought also to love one another. |
12 | No man hath seen ELOHIYM at any time. If we love one another, EL dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. |
13 |
Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. |
14 |
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. |
15 | Whosoever shall confess that YAHSHUA is the Son of ELOHIYM, EL dwelleth in him, and he in EL. |
16 | And we have known and believed the love that ELOHIYM hath to us. EL is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in EL, and EL in him. |
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. |
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. |
19 | We love him, because he first loved us. |
20 |
If a man say, I love ELOHIYM, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love EL whom he hath not seen? |
21 |
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth ELOHIYM love his brother also. |
