1 John 2:26-29

English Standard Version

²⁶ I write these things to you about ^(A)those who are trying to deceive you. ²⁷ But ^(B)the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and ^(C)you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and ^(D)is true, and is no lie—just as it has taught you, abide in him.

Children of God

²⁸ And now, little children, abide in him, so that ^(E)when he appears ^(F)we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his ^(G)coming. ²⁹ If you know that ^(H)he is righteous, you may be sure that ^(I)everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.
