CHAP. IV.

1 He warneth them not to beleeue all teachers, who boast of the spirit, but to try them by the rules of the Catholike faith: 7 and by many reasons exhorteth to brotherly loue.

1Beloued, beleeue not euery spirit, but trie the spirits, whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2Hereby know ye the spirit of God: euery spirit that confesseth that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God.

3And euery Spirit that confesseth not that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not of God: and this is that spirit of Antichrist, whereof you haue heard, that it should come, and euen now already is it in the world.

4Ye are of God, little children, and haue ouercome them: because greater is he that is in you, then he that is in the world.

5They are of the world: therefore speake they of the world, and the world heareth them.

6We are of God: hee that knoweth God, heareth vs: he that is not of God heareth not vs, hereby know wee the spirit of trueth, and the spirit of errour.

7Beloued, let vs loue one another; for loue is of God: and euery one that loueth, is borne of God and knoweth God.

8Hee that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue.

9In this was manifested the loue of God towards vs, because that God sent his only begotten Sonne into the world, that we might liue through him.

10Herein is loue, not that wee loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his Sonne to be þe propitiation for our sins.

11Beloued, if God so loued vs, wee ought also to loue one another.

12No man hath seene God at any time. If wee loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfected in vs.

13Hereby know wee that we dwell in him and he in vs, because hee hath giuen vs of his Spirit.

14And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent the Sonne to be the Sauiour of the world.

15Whosoeuer shall confesse that Iesus is the Sonne of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

16And we haue knowen and beleeued the loue that God hath to vs. God is loue, and hee that dwelleth in loue, dwelleth in God, and God in him.

17Herein is our loue made perfect, that wee may haue boldnesse in the day of Iudgement, because as hee is, so are we in this world.17

18There is no feare in loue, but perfect loue casteth out feare: because feare hath torment: hee that feareth, is not made perfect in loue.

19We loue him: because hee first loued vs.

20If a man say, I loue God, and hateth his brother, he is a lyar. For hee that loueth not his brother whom hee hath seene, how can he loue God whom he hath not seene?

21And this commandement haue we from him, that he who loueth God, loue his brother also.
