1 John 4:2 in Context — 1 John 4
1 Bien-aimés, n’ajoutez pas foi à tout esprit; mais éprouvez les esprits, pour savoir s’ils sont de Dieu, car plusieurs faux prophètes sont venus dans le monde.
2 Reconnaissez à ceci l’Esprit de Dieu: tout esprit qui confesse Jésus-Christ venu en chair est de Dieu;
3 et tout esprit qui ne confesse pas Jésus n’est pas de Dieu, c’est celui de l’antéchrist, dont vous avez appris la venue, et qui maintenant est déjà dans le monde.
4 Vous, petits enfants, vous êtes de Dieu, et vous les avez vaincus, parce que celui qui est en vous est plus grand que celui qui est dans le monde.
