# Connecting Statement:
John warns his readers of deceivers, reminds them to remain in Christ's teaching, and warns them to stay away from those who do not remain in Christ's teaching.
# For many deceivers have gone out into the world
"For many false teachers have left the congregation" or "For many deceivers are in the world"
# many deceivers
"many false teachers" or "many imposters"
# Jesus Christ came in the flesh
Coming in the flesh is a metonym for being a real person. Alternate translation: "Jesus Christ came as a real human" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
# This is the deceiver and the antichrist
"They are the ones who deceive others and oppose Christ himself"
