1 John 2:22 Context
20But ye haue an vnction from the holy One, and ye know all things. 21I haue not written vnto you, because yee know not the trueth: but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the trueth. 22Who is a lier, but hee that denieth that Iesus is the Christ? hee is Antichrist, that denyeth the Father, and the Sonne. 23Whosoeuer denieth the Sonne, the same hath not the Father: but he that acknowledgeth the Sonne, hath the Father also. 24Let that therefore abide in you which yee haue heard from the beginning: if that which ye haue heard from the beginning shall remaine in you, yee also shall continue in the Sonne, and in the Father.
