1 Yochanan 4:1-3 Exploring CJB


1 Yochanan (John) 4:1-3 Dar friends, don't trust every spirit. On the contrary, test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Here is how you recognize the Spirit of God; every spirit which acknowledges that Yeshua the Messiah came as a human being is from God,

and every spirit which does not acknowledge Yeshua is not from God--in fact, this is the spirit of the Anti-Messiah. You have heard that he is coming. Well, he's here now, in the world already!

1 Corinthians 14:26-33 What is our conclusion, brothers? Whenever you come together, let everyone be ready with a psalm or a teaching or a revelation, or ready to use his gift of tongues or give an interpretation; but let everything be for edification.

If the gift of tongues is exercised, let it be by two or at most three, and each in turn; and let someone interpret.

And if there is no one present who can interpret, let the people who speak in tongues keep silent when the congregation meets--they can speak to themselves and to God.

Let two or three prophets speak, while the others weigh what is said.

And if something is revealed to a prophet who is sitting down, let the first one be silent.

For you can all prophesy one by one, with the result that all will learn something and all will be encouraged.

Also, the prophets' spirits are under the prophets' control;

for God is not a God of unruliness but of shalom. As in all the congregations of God's people,

1 Corinthians 12:1-3 But, brothers, I do not want you to go on being ignorant about the things of the Spirit.

You know that when you were pagans, no matter how you felt you were being led, you were being led astray to idols, which can't speak at all.

Therefore, I want to make it clear to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God ever says, "Yeshua is cursed!" and no one can say, "Yeshua is Lord," except by the Ruach Ha Kodesh.
