them that seduce you. would lead you astray. But the anointing And as for you, the which ye have received anointing which ye received of Him abideth in you, of Him abideth and ye need not that in you, and ye need any man teach you: not that any one teach but as the same anointing you; but as His anointing teacheth you of all teacheth you concerning things, and is truth, all things, and and is no lie, and even is true, and is no lie, as it hath taught you, and even as it taught ye shall abide in Him. you, ye abide in Him. And now, little children, And now, _my_ little abide in Him; children, abide in Him; that, when He shall that, if He shall be appear, we may have manifested, we may confidence, and not be have boldness, and not ashamed before Him be ashamed before Him at His coming. at His coming. ANOTHER VERSION. Little children, it is a last hour; and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, so now many antichrists are in existence; whereby we know that it is a last hour. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us they would have continued with us: but that they might be made manifest how that all are not of us, _they all went out_. But ye have unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. I have not written unto you _this_--"ye know not the truth"--but _this_--"ye know it," and _this_--"every lie is not from the truth." Who is the liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? The antichrist is this, he that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son the same hath not the Father; he that confesseth the Son also hath the Father. As for you--that which ye heard from the beginning let it abide in you. If that abide in you which from the beginning ye heard, ye also shall abide in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise which He promised us, the life, the eternal _life_. These things have I written unto you concerning those that would mislead you. And as for you--the anointing which ye received from Him abideth in you, and ye have no need that any be teaching you: but as His unction is teaching you continually concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and as it taught you, so shall ye abide in Him. And now, children, abide in Him, that if He shall be manifested we may have boldness and not shrink in shame from Him in His coming.
