The Anointing - 1 John 2:26-29

1 John 2:26-29 ESV 

I write these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you. But the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie—just as it has taught you, abide in him.

And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.

The Holy Spirit is the anointing we have received. The boundary of our world changes when we accept Christ, when we receive His Spirit. That anointing seals us in the body of Christ. 

He is the Spirit of truth and that is what He teaches.
