If|strong="G1437" any|strong="G5100" man|strong="G5100" love the|strong="G1722" world|strong="G2889", the|strong="G1722" love of|strong="G3962" the|strong="G1722" Father|strong="G3962" is|strong="G1510" not|strong="G3756" in|strong="G1722" him|strong="G3588".

21 I|strong="G2532" have|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3756" written|strong="G1125" unto|strong="G1125" you|strong="G5210" because|strong="G3754" ye|strong="G5210" know|strong="G1492" not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G2532" truth, but|strong="G2532" because|strong="G3754" ye|strong="G5210" know|strong="G1492" it|strong="G2532", and|strong="G2532" because|strong="G3754" no|strong="G3756" lie|strong="G5579" is|strong="G1510" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" truth.
22 Who|strong="G5101" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" liar|strong="G5583" but|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3754" denieth that|strong="G3754" Jesus|strong="G2424" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" Christ|strong="G5547"? This|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" antichrist, even he|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3754" denieth the|strong="G2532" Father|strong="G3962" and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" Son|strong="G5207".
23 Whosoever|strong="G3956" denieth the|strong="G2532" Son|strong="G5207", the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G2532" hath|strong="G2192" not|strong="G3761" the|strong="G2532" Father|strong="G3962".

If|strong="G1437" that|strong="G3739" which|strong="G3739" ye|strong="G5210" heard from|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" beginning abide|strong="G3306" in|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210", ye|strong="G5210" also|strong="G2532" shall|strong="G2532" abide|strong="G3306" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" Son|strong="G5207", and|strong="G2532" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" Father|strong="G3962".
25 And|strong="G2532" this|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" promise|strong="G1860" which|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" promised|strong="G1861" us|strong="G2249", even the|strong="G2532" life|strong="G2222" eternal.
26 These|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778" have|strong="G5210" I|strong="G3778" written|strong="G1125" unto|strong="G1125" you|strong="G5210" concerning|strong="G4012" them|strong="G3588" that|strong="G3588" would lead you|strong="G5210" astray|strong="G4105".
27 And|strong="G2532" as|strong="G5613" for|strong="G4012" you|strong="G5210", the|strong="G1722" anointing|strong="G5545" which|strong="G3739" ye|strong="G5210" received|strong="G2983" of|strong="G4012" him|strong="G3588" abideth|strong="G3306" in|strong="G1722" you|strong="G5210", and|strong="G2532" ye|strong="G5210" need|strong="G5532" not|strong="G3756" that|strong="G2443" anyone|strong="G5100" teach|strong="G1321" you|strong="G5210"; but|strong="G2532" as|strong="G5613" the|strong="G1722" same|strong="G3739" anointing|strong="G5545" teacheth|strong="G1321" you|strong="G5210" concerning|strong="G4012" all|strong="G3956" things|strong="G3956", and|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" true|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" no|strong="G3756" lie|strong="G5579", and|strong="G2532" even|strong="G2532" as|strong="G5613" it|strong="G2532" taught|strong="G1321" you|strong="G5210", ye|strong="G5210" shall|strong="G2532" abide|strong="G3306" in|strong="G1722" him|strong="G3588".

29 If|strong="G1437" ye|strong="G3754" know|strong="G1492" that|strong="G3754" he|strong="G2532" is|strong="G1510" righteous|strong="G1342", ye|strong="G3754" know|strong="G1492" that|strong="G3754" everyone|strong="G3956" that|strong="G3754" doeth|strong="G4160" righteousness|strong="G1343" is|strong="G1510" begotten|strong="G1080" of|strong="G1537" him|strong="G3588".
