1 John 2:22

Who is a liar, if not the man who rejects the truth that Jesus is the Christ? He is the Anti-Christ — The man who rejects the Father and the Son.

Twentieth Century New Testament

In The King James Version

Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

In Context

23No one who rejects the Son has found the Father; he who acknowledges the Son has found the Father also.
