God said it not me! Denying Christ in the Walk

1 John 2:20-24

20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know. 21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth.

22 Who is the liar except the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.

24 As for you, see that what you heard from the beginning remains in you. If what you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father."

There are many ways to deny Christ by proclaiming to be a Christian but hate the principles of Christ. When someone says they go to church or they are a Christian but fight against the Word of God they are denying Christ. Christ is the Word, He is the essence of His own Word.

John 1:14-15 "14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us; and we saw His glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John *testified about Him and called out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who is coming after me has proved to be my superior because He existed before me.’”"

It is our dedication to His Word and the fruit of the Spirit that defines us, our walk defines us, not our words.
