Traités sur l'Épître de Saint Jean aux Parthes
TROISIÈME TRAITÉ.
DEPUIS LES PAROLES SUIVANTES : « MES PETITS ENFANTS, VOICI LA DERNIÈRE HEURE », JUSQU'A CES AUTRES : « SON ONCTION VOUS ENSEIGNE TOUT ». (Chap. II, 18-27.)
L'ANTÉCHRIST.
Puisque nous avons trouvé en Jésus-Christ une nouvelle vie, nous devons aussi prendre en lui de l'accroissement, c'est-à-dire, apprendre à le connaître, non-seulement comme homme, mais aussi comme Dieu. Efforçons-nous d'acquérir cette science, car il y a au milieu de nous des antéchrists qui pourraient nous séduire par leurs paroles et surtout par leurs exemples, qui nient la divinité du Sauveur soit doctrinalement soit en pratique. Si nous tenons ferme à ce que la foi nous enseigne relativement au Christ, nous aurons à lutter, mais nous recevrons, pour récompense, la vie éternelle.

Ten Homilies on the First Epistle of John
Homily III.
1 John II. 18-27
"Children, it is the last hour: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour. They went out from us, but they were not of us: if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and know all things. 1 I write unto you, not because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? [He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.] 2 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath neither the Father nor the Son: and he that acknowledgeth the Son hath both the Father and the Son. Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. And this is the promise that He hath promised us, even eternal life. These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you; that ye may know that ye have an unction, and that the unction which ye have received of him may abide in you. And ye need not that any man teach you; because His unction teacheth you of all things."
