1 John 2:24-27
New King James Version
Let Truth Abide in You
24 Therefore let that abide in you (A)which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, (B)you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 (C)And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life.
26 These things I have written to you concerning those who try to [a]deceive you. 27 But the (D)anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and (E)you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing (F)teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you [b]will abide in Him.

American Standard Version
24 As for you, let that abide in you which ye heard from the beginning. If that which ye heard from the beginning abide in you, ye also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise which he promised [a]us, even the life eternal. 26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that would lead you astray. 27 And as for you, the anointing which ye received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any one teach you; but as his anointing teacheth you concerning all things, [b]and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, [c]ye abide in him.
