1 JOHN 4:1 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 2
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.”
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world — the command to test (dokimazo) spirits guards against deception. False prophets (pseudoprophētēs) propagate false spirits; discernment is essential. The world (kosmos) has become a mission field for deception.
