The unction of 1 John 2:20 is the specific New Covenant provision given to believing Israel — rooted in Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Joel, and promised by Christ to His Jewish disciples in the upper room. It is not a general Christian experience, and Paul never uses it to describe the Body of Christ.

The sheep and shepherd metaphor belongs to Israel's prophetic kingdom program, not the Body of Christ. Paul never calls believers sheep. This article shows the difference between Israel's earthly fold under the Shepherd-King and the Body's heavenly identity as living members of Christ.
