Hereby we shall know that we are of the truth, and we shall assure our heart before Him;

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone forth into the world.

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He Who is in you, than he that is in the world.

They are of the world; for this cause they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

We are of God; he that knows God hears us; he that is not of God hears us not: from this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

We know that we are of God, and the whole world is lying in the evil one.
