Lamsa(i)
20 But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and you are enabled to distinguish between men.
21 I have written to you not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie comes out of the truth.
22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is a false christ, and whoever denies the Father, denies the Son also.
23 Whoever denies the Son, the same does not believe in the Father; but whoever acknowledges the Son, acknowledges the Father also.
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.
