1 John 2:19-21

19 They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us.

20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.^[a]

21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth.
