Testing the Spirits
1Ἀγαπητοί, μὴ παντὶ πνεύματι πιστεύετε, ἀλλὰ δοκιμάζετε τὰ πνεύματα εἰ ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν, ὅτι πολλοὶ ψευδοπροφῆται ἐξεληλύθασιν εἰς τὸν κόσμον. 2ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκετε τὸ πνεῦμα τοῦ θεοῦ· πᾶν πνεῦμα ὁμολογεῖ Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ἐν σαρκὶ ἐληλυθότα ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν, 3καὶ πᾶν πνεῦμα μὴ ὁμολογεῖ τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐκ ἐστιν· καὶ τοῦτο ἐστιν τὸ τοῦ ἀντίχριστου, ἀκηκόατε ὅτι ἔρχεται, καὶ νῦν ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ἐστὶν ἤδη. 4ὑμεῖς ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστε, τεκνία, καὶ νενικήκατε αὐτοὺς, ὅτι μείζων ἐστιν ἐν ὑμῖν ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ. 5αὐτοὶ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου εἰσὶν, διὰ τοῦτο ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου λαλοῦσιν καὶ κόσμος αὐτῶν ἀκούει. 6ἡμεῖς ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐσμεν, γινώσκων τὸν θεὸν ἀκούει ἡμῶν, ὃς οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐκ ἀκούει ἡμῶν. ἐκ τούτου γινώσκομεν τὸ πνεῦμα τῆς ἀληθείας καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τῆς πλάνης.

Love Comes From God
7Ἀγαπητοί, ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους ὅτι ἀγάπη ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν, καὶ πᾶς ἀγαπῶν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ γεγέννηται καὶ γινώσκει τὸν θεόν. 8 μὴ ἀγαπῶν οὐκ ἔγνω τὸν θεόν, ὅτι θεὸς ἀγάπη ἐστίν. 9ἐν τούτῳ ἐφανερώθη ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ἡμῖν, ὅτι τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν μονογενῆ ἀπέσταλκεν θεὸς εἰς τὸν κόσμον ἵνα ζήσωμεν δι’ αὐτοῦ. 10ἐν τούτῳ ἐστιν ἀγάπη, οὐχ ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἠγαπήκαμεν τὸν θεὸν ἀλλ’ ὅτι αὐτὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἱλασμὸν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν. 11Ἀγαπητοί, εἰ οὕτως θεὸς ἠγάπησεν ἠμᾶς, καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ἀλλήλους ἀγαπᾶν. 12θεὸν οὐδεὶς πώποτε τεθέαται. ἐὰν ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους θεὸς ἐν ἡμῖν μένει καὶ ἀγάπη αὐτοῦ τετελειωμένη ἐν ἡμῖν ἐστίν. 13Ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐν αὐτῷ μένομεν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν ἡμῖν, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος αὐτοῦ δέδωκεν ἡμῖν. 14καὶ ἡμεῖς τεθεάμεθα καὶ μαρτυροῦμεν ὅτι πατὴρ ἀπέσταλκεν τὸν υἱὸν σωτῆρα τοῦ κόσμου.

15ὃς ἐὰν ὁμολογήσῃ ὅτι Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς ἐστιν υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, θεὸς ἐν αὐτῳ μένει καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν τῷ θεῷ. 16καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐγνώκαμεν καὶ πεπιστεύκαμεν τὴν ἀγάπην ἣν ἔχει θεὸς ἐν ἡμῖν. θεὸς ἀγάπη ἐστιν, καὶ μένων ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ ἐν τῷ θεῷ μένει καὶ θεὸς ἐν αὐτῷ μένει. 17ἐν τούτῷ τετελείωται ἀγάπη μεθ’ ἡμῶν, ἵνα παρρησίαν ἔχωμεν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρα τῆς κρίσεως, ὅτι καθὼς ἐκεῖνος ἐστιν καὶ ἡμεῖς ἐσμεν ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ τούτῳ. 18φόβος οὐκ ἐστιν ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ ἀλλ’ τελεία ἀγάπη ἔξω βάλλει τὸν φόβον, ὅτι φόβος κόλασιν ἔχει, δὲ φοβούμενος οὐ τετελείωται ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ. 19ἡμεῖς ἀγαπῶμεν, ὅτι αὐτὸς πρῶτος ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς. 20ἐὰν τις εἴπη ὅτι ἀγαπῶ τὸν θεὸν καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ μισῇ, ψεύστης ἐστίν· γὰρ μὴ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ὃν ἑώρακεν, τὸν θεὸν ὃν οὐχ ἑώρακεν οὐ δύναται ἀγαπᾶν. 21καὶ ταύτην τὴν ἐντολὴν ἔχομεν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ, ἵνα ἀγαπῶν τὸν θεὸν ἀγαπᾷ καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ.
