1 John 2:24-29

Lamsa(i) 24 Let that, therefore, abide in you which you have heard from the very beginning. For if that which you have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, you also shall continue in the Father and in the Son. 25 And this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life. 26 These things I have written to you concerning those who seduce you. 27 And you also, if the anointing which you have received from him abides among you, need no one to teach you: that same anointing which is of God, will teach you all things; it is a truth, and there is no lie in it; and even as I have taught you, abide in it. 28 And now, my children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may not be ashamed before him, but have pride at his coming. 29 If you know that he is righteous, you know also that every one who does righteousness is of him.
