First Test
1 John 4:1 – My loved ones, do not put your faith in every spirit, but put them to the test, to see if they are from God: because a great number of false prophets have gone out into the world
In a time like this [end time], believers have to be very careful and observant. They have to not just trust every spirit or put their faith in every spirit. The Bible advised us to test all spirits [irrespective of who the person is that the spirit is working through.
This test is likening to the litmus test. The result to conclude is in verse 2 and 3 which says, “By this you may have knowledge of the Spirit of God: every spirit which says that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit which does not say this is not from God: this is the spirit of Antichrist, of which you have had word; and it is in the world even now.”
Beloved, the confession is not just from the mouth by more from action and behaviour, remember actions speak more and the early disciples were called Christians just because of their actions and behaviour.
Now, draw the conclusion and save your souls from the menace of false prophets and teachers. Always test all spirits and don’t be tossed by their gimmick. Shalom!
