1 John 2:21 in Context — 1 John 2
19 Eles saíram de nós, mas não eram dos nossos, pois se fossem dos nossos, continuariam conosco; mas [o que aconteceu] foi para tornar claro que todos eles não eram dos nossos.
20 Vós, porém, tendes a unção do Santo, e conheceis todas as coisas.
21 Eu vos escrevi, não porque não conheceis a verdade, mas sim, porque a conheceis, e porque nenhuma mentira vem da verdade.
22 Quem é o mentiroso, senão aquele que nega que Jesus é o Cristo? Esse é o anticristo, que nega o Pai e o Filho.
23 Quem nega o Filho também não tem o Pai; aquele que confessa o filho também tem o Pai.
