Learning
to Understand God
1st John 4: 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.
God is your Father and because of this, you have already overcome those with the spirit of antichrist – those who are against Christ – because greater is Christ who lives and abides in you as you live in obedience to God’s word, than the spirit of the one who is against Christ (antichrist) that is in the world.
1st John 4: 5
They are of the world:
therefore speak they of the world and the world heareth them.
Those with the spirit of antichrist are of the world because the standards of the world are completely opposite of the standards of Christ. All who live outside of the standards of Christ, as outlined in the Bible are of the world, therefore when they speak, they speak of the things of the world and all who are a part of the world pay attention to what they are saying.
How To Identify The Spirit Of Truth And The Spirit Of Error
1st John 4: 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 and the spirit of error.
Observation
Examine yourself. Are you of God? Are you obedient to the teachings of God as outlined by Him in His word? Are you receptive to those who teach the truth of God? If your answer is no to either of these questions, you are not of God and now is a good time to become a part of His family.
A
Prayer to Receive Salvation
Dear
God, I confess that I am a sinner. I believe that Your Son Jesus Christ died for
my sins. I ask Your forgiveness of my sins and accept Your Son into my life as
my personal Lord and Saviour. I believe that You
raised Him from the dead and because of this, I know that I can live a
victorious new life in Christ. Thank You for my salvation.
Now
complete the process of salvation by being baptized.
Acts
2: 38
