1 John 2:24-27
English Standard Version
24 Let (A)what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then (B)you too will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he made to us[a]—(C)eternal life.
26 I write these things to you about (D)those who are trying to deceive you. 27 But (E)the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and (F)you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and (G)is true, and is no lie—just as it has taught you, abide in him.

International Standard Version
24 What you have heard from the beginning must abide in you. If what you have heard from the beginning abides in you, you will also abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 The message that the Son[a] himself declared to us is eternal life. 26 I have written[b] to you about those who are trying to deceive you. 27 The anointing you received from God[c] abides in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you this.[d] Instead, because God’s[e] anointing teaches you about everything and is true and not a lie, abide in him, as he taught you to do.[f]
