1 John 2:26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
These verses show us that we draw closer to God by simply remaining in Christ. It lets us know that there are people and preachers out there that will try to lead us in the wrong way. There are so many out there today that compromise the word of God to fit their agenda and try to lure as many people to them as they can. Because we have the anointing of God that we have though we should be able to discern when a false profit is trying to lead us astray. This will help us to stay true to the teaching of the truth and be able to abide in Christ. In doing this we will not be ashamed when He comes to call his children home.
