“But you have an anointing from the Holy One,
and all of you know the truth.
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.”
I John 2:20-21
All believers possess the resources for knowing the truth because of the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit gives confidence that the teaching accepted is indeed the truth. The truth is necessary for preservation and eternal salvation. It helps believers have a better understanding of God’s character, a greater confidence in Him and a clearer knowledge of how to live.
There is no error in the truth. No lie can be of the truth or have its foundation in the truth. Doctrine contrary to that taught by God's word is not the truth.
