1 John 2:24-29

24 But as for you, keep in your hearts the things which were made clear to you from the first. If you keep these things in your hearts you will be kept in the Father and the Son.

25 And this is the hope which he gave you, even eternal life.

26 I am writing these things to you about those whose purpose is that you may be turned out of the true way.

27 As for you, the Spirit which he gave you is still in you, and you have no need of any teacher; but as his Spirit gives you teaching about all things, and is true and not false, so keep your hearts in him, through the teaching which he has given you.

28 And now, my children, keep your hearts in him; so that at his revelation, we may have no fear or shame before him at his coming.

29 If you have knowledge that he is upright, it is clear to you that everyone who does righteousness is his offspring.
