1 John 2:20-23
New International Version
20 But you have an anointing(A) from the Holy One,(B) and all of you know the truth.[a](C) 21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it(D) and because no lie comes from the truth. 22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist—denying the Father and the Son.(E) 23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.(F)
