Holy Bible WEB XML New Testament Book of 2John 2John Chapter 01 {1,1}: The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all those who know the truth; {1,2}: for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: {1,3}: Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. {1,4}: I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father. {1,5}: Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. {1,6}: This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it. {1,7}: For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don't confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist. {1,8}: Watch yourselves, that we don't lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward. {1,9}: Whoever transgresses and doesn't remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn't have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son. {1,10}: If anyone comes to you, and doesn't bring this teaching, don't receive him into your house, and don't welcome him, {1,11}: for he who welcomes him participates in his evil works. {1,12}: Having many things to write to you, I don't want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full. {1,13}: The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen. * Holy Bible WEB XML - Extracted and Compiled from Public Domain by Steven C. Howes - Howes-IT-Going.com - For Windows and Web *
