1 John 2:22-24

New Century Version

²² Who is the liar? It is the person who does not accept Jesus as the Christ. This is the enemy of Christ: the person who does not accept the Father and his Son. ²³ Whoever does not accept the Son does not have the Father. But whoever confesses the Son has the Father, too.

²⁴ Be sure you continue to follow the teaching you heard from the beginning. If you continue to follow what you heard from the beginning, you will stay in the Son and in the Father.
