Siblings, I am not writing a new commandment to y’all, but an old one which y’all had from the beginning. The old commandment is the message which y’all heard.
The foreigner who resides among y’all is be to as the native-born among y’all, and you are love them as yourself, because y’all lived as foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am YHWH y’all’s God.
As for y’all, what y’all heard from the beginning must remain in y’all. If what y’all heard from the beginning remains in y’all, y’all will remain in the Son and in the Father.
Beloved, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. But we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
Beloved, y’all must not believe every spirit. Instead, test the spirits to determine whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
