1 John 2:20-27

201But you haveG2192 an 2anointingG5545 from 3the HolyG40 OneG40, and 4you allG3956 knowG3609. 21I have not writtenG1125 to you becauseG3754 you do not knowG3609 the truthG225, but 5becauseG3754 you do knowG3609 it, and 6becauseG3754 noG3956G3756 lieG5579 is 7of the truthG225. 22WhoG5101 is the liarG5583 but 8the one who deniesG720 that JesusG2424 is the 9ChristG5547? ThisG3778 is 10the antichristG500, the one who deniesG720 the FatherG3962 and the SonG5207. 2311WhoeverG3956 deniesG720 the SonG5207 does not haveG2192 the FatherG3962; the one who confessesG3670 the SonG5207 hasG2192 the FatherG3962 alsoG2532. 24As for you, let that abideG3306 in you whichG3739 you heardG191 12from the beginningG746. IfG1437 whatG3739 you heardG191 from the beginningG746 abidesG3306 in you, you alsoG2532 13will abideG3306 in the SonG5207 and in the FatherG3962. 2514ThisG3778 is the promiseG1860 whichG3739 He HimselfG846 15madeG1861 to us: eternalG166 lifeG2222.

26TheseG3778 thingsG3778 I have writtenG1125 to you concerningG4012 thoseG3588 who are trying to 16deceiveG4105 you. 27As for you, the 17anointingG5545 whichG3739 you receivedG2983 from Him abidesG3306 in you, and you haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 for anyoneG5100 to teachG1321 you; but as His anointingG5545 18teachesG1321 you aboutG4012 allG3956 thingsG3956, and is 19trueG227 and is not a lieG5579, and justG2531 as it has taughtG1321 you, 20you abideG3306 in Him.
