1 John 2:21-23

21I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but 1because you do know it, and 2because no lie is 3of the truth.

22Who is the liar except 4the one who denies that Jesus is the 5Christ? This is 6the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

237Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.
