1 John 2:20-23
English Standard Version
20 But you have been (A)anointed by (B)the Holy One, and (C)you all have knowledge.[a] 21 I write to you, not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is the liar but (D)he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is (E)the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son. 23 (F)No one who denies the Son has the Father. Whoever confesses the Son has the Father also.

New Living Translation
20 But you are not like that, for the Holy One has given you his Spirit,[a] and all of you know the truth. 21 So I am writing to you not because you don’t know the truth but because you know the difference between truth and lies. 22 And who is a liar? Anyone who says that Jesus is not the Christ.[b] Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.[c] 23 Anyone who denies the Son doesn’t have the Father, either. But anyone who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
