2 John 1: 4 - 9
|
| 4
|
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.
|
| 5
|
And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.
|
| 6
|
And this is love, that we follow his commandments; this is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you follow love.
|
| 7
|
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.
|
| 8
|
Look to yourselves, that you may not lose what you have worked for, but may win a full reward.
|
| 9
|
Any one who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God; he who abides in the doctrine has both the Father and the Son.
