Walk
According to His Commandments |
|
|
 |
2 John 1:1
|
|
The elder to the chosen lady and her children,
whom I love in truth; and not only I, but also all who know the truth, |
|
|
|
2 John 1:2
|
|
for the sake of the truth which abides in us
and will be with us forever: |
|
|
|
2 John 1:3
|
|
Grace, mercy and peace will be with us, from
God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:4
|
|
I was very glad to find some of your children
walking in truth, just as we have received commandment to do from the Father.
|
|
|
|
2 John 1:5
|
|
Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing
to you a new commandment, but the one which we have had from the beginning, that
we love one another. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:6
|
|
And this is love, that we walk according to
His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning,
that you should walk in it. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:7
|
|
For many deceivers have gone out into the world,
those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the
deceiver and the antichrist. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:8
|
|
Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what
we have accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:9
|
|
Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in
the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching,
he has both the Father and the Son. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:10
|
|
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this
teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting; |
|
|
|
2 John 1:11
|
|
for the one who gives him a greeting participates
in his evil deeds. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:12
|
|
Though I have many things to write to you, I
do not want to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face
to face, so that your joy may be made full. |
|
|
|
2 John 1:13
|
|
The children of your chosen sister greet you. |
