Chapter 1

1


 

  The elder to [the] elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only but also all who have known the truth,  

 

 

--

2


 

  for the truth's sake which abides in us and shall be with us to eternity.  

 

 

--

3


 

  Grace shall be with you, mercy, peace from God [the] Father, and from [the] Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.  

 

 

--

4


 

  I rejoiced greatly that I have found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received commandment from the Father.  

 

 

--

5


 

  And now I beseech thee, lady, not as writing to thee a new commandment, but that which we have had from [the] beginning, that we should love one another.  

 

 

--

6


 

  And this is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, according as ye have heard from the beginning, that ye might walk in it.  

 

 

--

7


 

  For many deceivers have gone out into the world, they who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in flesh -- this is the deceiver and the antichrist.  

 

 

--

8


 

  See to yourselves, that we may not lose what we have wrought, but may receive full wages.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Whosoever goes forward and abides not in the doctrine of the Christ has not God. He that abides in the doctrine, he has both the Father and the Son.  

 

 

--

10


 

  If any one come to you and bring not this doctrine, do not receive him into [the] house, and greet him not;  

 

 

--

11


 

  for he who greets him partakes in his wicked works.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Having many things to write to you, I would not with paper and ink; but hope to come to you, and to speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.  

 

 

--

13


 

  The children of thine elect sister greet thee.  

 

 

--

3rd John 1
