2John:1:1 @
The elder ,
to the chosen lady and her children ,
whom I love in truth ;
and not I only ,
but also all those who know the truth ;
web @
2John:1:2 @
for the truth '
s sake ,
which remains in us ,
and it will be with us forever :
web @
2John:1:3 @
Grace ,
mercy ,
and peace will be with us ,
from God the Father ,
and from the Lord Jesus Christ ,
the Son of the Father ,
in truth and love .
web @
2John:1:4 @
I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth ,
even as we have been commanded by the Father .
web @
2John:1:5 @
Now I beg you ,
dear lady ,
not as though I wrote to you a new commandment ,
but that which we had from the beginning ,
that we love one another .
web @
2John:1:6 @
This is love ,
that we should walk according to his commandments .
This is the commandment ,
even as you heard from the beginning ,
that you should walk in it .

2John:1:7 @
For many deceivers have gone out into the world ,
those who don '
t confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh .
This is the deceiver and the Antichrist .
web @
2John:1:8 @
Watch yourselves ,
that we don '
t lose the things which we have accomplished ,
but that we receive a full reward .
web @
2John:1:9 @
Whoever transgresses and doesn '
t remain in the teaching of Christ ,
doesn '
t have God .
He who remains in the teaching ,
the same has both the Father and the Son .
web @
2John:1:10 @
If anyone comes to you ,
and doesn '
t bring this teaching ,
don '
t receive him into your house ,
and don '
t welcome him ,
web @
2John:1:11 @
for he who welcomes him participates in his evil works .
web @
2John:1:12 @
Having many things to write to you ,
I don '
t want to do so with paper and ink ,
but I hope to come to you ,
and to speak face to face ,
that our joy may be made full .
web @
2John:1:13 @
The children of your chosen sister greet you .
Amen .
