1 John 2:23 in Context — 1 John 2

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.

24 Portanto o que ouvistes desde o princípio permaneça em vós. Se o que ouvistes desde o princípio permanecer em vós, também permanecereis no Filho e no Pai.

25 E esta é a promessa que ele nos prometeu: a vida eterna.
