2 John 1:7-13 ▼

7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world. They refuse to acknowledge Jesus the Messiah as having become human. Any such person is a deceiver and an antichrist.

8 See to it that you don't destroy what we have worked for, but that you receive your full reward.

9 Everyone who does not remain true to the teaching of the Messiah, but goes beyond it, does not have God. The person who remains true to the teaching of the Messiah has both the Father and the Son.

10 If anyone comes to you but does not present his teachings, do not receive him into your house or even welcome him,

11 because the one who welcomes him shares in his evil deeds.

12 Although I have a great deal to write to you, I would prefer not to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to come to you and talk face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Greetings from John
