1 John 2:26-27 “These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you. (27) But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.” But I want you to notice in the above passage of scripture, something that the apostle John teaches us regarding the anointing of the Holy Spirit. He teaches us that each believer has the anointing on the inside of them. And it is the anointing of the Holy Spirit within us which can keep us from being deceived. I have seen whole churches being led astray out of loyalty to pastors, who have gone after the teachings of false prophets. But I have also seen even baby Christians, leaving those same churches because the Holy Spirit had witnessed on the inside of them that those doctrines were not of God. Michael E.B. Maher
