Greeting the Elect Lady
Obey Christ’s Commandments; Beware of Deceivers
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:1 - The Elder,
To the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have known the truth,
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:2 - because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:3 - Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you[fn] from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Walk in Christ’s Commandments
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:4 - I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:5 - 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.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:6 - 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.
Beware of Antichrist Deceivers
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:7 - 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.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:8 - Look to yourselves, that we[fn] do not lose those things we worked for, but that we[fn] may receive a full reward.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:9 - Whoever transgresses[fn] and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:10 - If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:11 - for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.
John’s Farewell Greeting
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:12 - Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
Unchecked Copy Box2Jo 1:13 - The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.
