19 Ils sont sortis du milieu de nous, mais ils n’étaient pas des nôtres; car s’ils eussent été des nôtres, ils seraient demeurés avec nous, mais cela est arrivé afin qu’il fût manifeste que tous ne sont pas des nôtres.
20 Pour vous, vous avez reçu l’onction de la part de celui qui est saint, et vous avez tous de la connaissance.
21 Je vous ai écrit, non que vous ne connaissiez pas la vérité, mais parce que vous la connaissez, et parce qu’aucun mensonge ne vient de la vérité.
22 Qui est menteur, sinon celui qui nie que Jésus est le Christ? Celui-là est l’antéchrist, qui nie le Père et le Fils.
23 Quiconque nie le Fils n’a pas non plus le Père; quiconque confesse le Fils a aussi le Père.
