“We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.”
1 John 4:6 KJV
But we belong to God, and whoever truly knows God listens to us. Those who refuse to listen to us do not belong to God. That is how we can know the difference between the spirit of truth and the spirit of deceit. We belong and originate in God and our revelation is that Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh. He is the One Who as the Son of God, mirrors and redeems the image and likeness of God in human form. He declares God as the Only legitimate Father of the human race. Because the Word is Christ, we can discern true prophets from false ones. True prophets will: confess that Christ has come in bodily form; they do not come in the spirit of this world, but listen to the truth; the Spirit of Truth is in them as they demonstrate love, they remain true to the written Word of God; they are overcomers as the greater One lives in them; and they have a commitment to the Body of Christ. Let’s not operate in the spirit of error but in the Spirit of Truth. Amen!
