Greeting
The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all who know the truth,
The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all who know the truth,
because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:
because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever:
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father’s Son, in truth and love.
Walk in Christ’s Commandments
I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
Walking in Truth and Love
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as we were commanded by the Father.
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as we were commanded by the Father.
And now I plead with you, 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.
And now I ask you, dear 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.
This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.
And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it.
Beware of Antichrist Deceivers
For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting,
for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.
for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.
