1 John 2:17-19
The Voice
17 This corrupt world is already wasting away, as are its selfish desires. But the person really doing God’s will—that person will never cease to be.
18 My children, this is the final hour. You have heard that the antiChrist, the greatest enemy to His kingdom, is coming, but in fact, many antiChrists are already here. This development tells us how late it really is. 19 A group has left us, but they were not part of our family. If they were truly our brothers and sisters, they would have remained for the duration with us. When they left, they made it ever so obvious that they were not part of us.

Warnings Against Denying the Son
18 Dear children, this is the last hour;(C) and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming,(D) even now many antichrists have come.(E) This is how we know it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us,(F) 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.(G)
