| To "confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God" is to claim there is another King who is Jesus[1] the anointed king of the kingdom of God at hand. |
| This chapter is all about love and loving God because he loved us first and loving one another. |
| That love is not just an emotional feeling nor words of kindness[2] but a love that manifests[3] itself in deed and in truth and not in the deeds of evil[4] like covetous practices and laying yokes of bondage and curse children. |
| John again repeats himself in verses 20 and 21. If a man hate his brother then he is a liar and the God is not in him. To place heavy burdens on your neighbor and your neighbor's children is a hateful deed. To not help you brother lift the bands which connected to that bondage is also hate. Isaiah 58 |
| Questions |
| What is the spirit of the world? |
| What is the spirit of Christ and His kingdom of God? |
| How do you know who "believeth that Jesus is the Christ" anointed king? 1 John 5:2 |
| The would i be true that only those who have the deeds of His righteousness are truly "born of God". |
- 1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
- 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
- 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
- 4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
- 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
- 6 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[5], and the spirit of error.
- 7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
- 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
- 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
- 10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
- 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
- 12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
- 13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
- 14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
- 15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
- 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
- 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
- 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
- 19 We love him, because he first loved us.
- 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
- 21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
