- 1 The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth ; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
- 3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father , and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
- 4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
- 5 And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning , that we love one another.
- 6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning , ye should walk in it.
- 7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
- 8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
- 9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
- 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
- 12 Having many things to write unto you , I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
