1 Amados, não creiais em todo espírito, mas provai se os espíritos são da parte de Deus; porque muitos falsos profetas têm vindo ao mundo.
2 Nisto conhecereis o Espírito de Deus: todo espírito que confessa que Jesus Cristo veio em carne é de Deus;
3 e todo espírito que não confessa que Jesus Cristo veio em carne não é de Deus; e este é o do anticristo, do qual já ouvistes que virá, e que já agora está no mundo.
