Testing the Spirits in the Bible

We are going to talk about Testing the Spirits in the Bible. Not all supernatural encounters come from God. We see in the story of Moses that his staff turned into a snake. Yet Pharaohs magicians could do the same thing. The Bible says that the Satan comes as an angel of light. He is going to show up in harmless forms to try to deceive us. So we must test the spirits.

1 John 4
Test the Spirits
4 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you heard was coming and now is in the world already.
