1 John 2:20-26
New King James Version
20 But (A)you have an anointing (B)from the Holy One, and (C)you[a] know all things. 21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 (D)Who is a liar but he who denies that (E)Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 23 (F)Whoever denies the Son does not have the (G)Father either; (H)he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
Let Truth Abide in You
24 Therefore let that abide in you (I)which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, (J)you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 (K)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 [b]deceive you.

1 John 2:20-26
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)
24 As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning(G) remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.(H) 25 And this is what he promised us—eternal life.(I)
26 I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray.(J)
