If that which you heard from the beginning may abide in you, you also are abiding in the Son, and in the Father. ²⁵ This is the message which he proclaimed unto you, eternal life. ²⁶ I have written these things unto you concerning those deceiving you. ²⁷ And the unction which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one may teach you: but as his unction teaches you concerning all things, and it is true, and it is no lie, and as he has taught you, abide in him. ²⁸ And now, little children, abide in him; in order that, if he may appear, we may have boldness, and not shrink with embarrassment from him in his presence.
