1 John 2:18
Compare all
16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, athe lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.  
17 And athe world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.  

Deceptions of the Last Hour

19 aThey went out from us, but they were not of us; for bif they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out cthat they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.  
20 But ayou have an anointing bfrom the Holy One, and cyou know all things.  
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 aWho is a liar but he who denies that bJesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.  
23 aWhoever denies the Son does not have the bFather either; che who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

25 aAnd this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life.
