How do we know the unction from the Holy One is true?

Answered in 1 source

The unction from the Holy One, representing the Holy Spirit's anointing, confirms the believer's understanding of the truth.

1 John 2:20 states, 'But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.' This unction is understood as the anointing of the Holy Spirit that allows believers to discern spiritual truth. It is not about knowing everything perfectly but rather about understanding all essentials needed for salvation. This divine empowerment assures believers that they have sufficient knowledge of salvation and the truths of God. The Holy Spirit works within them, leading them into all truth (John 16:13), ensuring that God’s people can recognize and adhere to the true gospel.
