1 John 2:24-29
New American Standard Bible 1995
24 As for you, let that abide in you which you heard (A)from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also (B)will abide in the Son and in the Father.
The Promise Is Eternal Life
25 (C)This is the promise which He Himself [a]made to us: eternal life.
26 These things I have written to you concerning those who are trying to (D)deceive you. 27 As for you, the (E)anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing (F)teaches you about all things, and is (G)true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, [b]you abide in Him.
28 Now, (H)little children, abide in Him, so that when He (I)appears, we may have (J)confidence and (K)not [c]shrink away from Him in shame [d]at His (L)coming. 29 If you know that (M)He is righteous, you know that everyone also who practices righteousness (N)is [e]born of Him.
