2 John 1
Bible: All Books |
1:1) The elder, To the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth --and not I only, but also all who know the truth--
1:2) because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:
1:3) Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father's Son, will be with us in truth and love.
1:4) It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us. [Walking in the commandment in the manner in which the father gave it.]
1:5) And now I plead with you dear lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another.
1:6) And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
1:7) Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
1:8) Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.
1:9) Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
1:10) If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him. [Those who do not walk in love.]
1:11) Anyone who welcomes him shares in his wicked work.
1:12) I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be full.
1:13) The children of your chosen sister send their greetings.
