18 cLittle children, mit is the last time: and as ye have heard that nantichrist shall come, even now are there omany antichrists; whereby we know mthat it is the last time. 19 pThey went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, qthey would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, rthat they might be made manifest that they were not sall of us. 20 But ye have tan unction from uthe Holy One, and vye know all things. 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because xye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but yhe that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is nantichrist, that zdenieth the Father and the Son. 23 aWhosoever zdenieth the Son, the same bhath not the Father: (but) che that acknowledgeth the Son bhath the Father also. 24 Let that therefore abide in you, dwhich ye have heard from the beginning. If that dwhich ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, eye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even feternal life.
