1 This letter is from Yohan the elder to the chosen lady and her children who I genuinely love (as do all the other believers) 2 because of the truth that lives in us and will be with us forever.
3 We will have grace, mercy, and peace in truth and love from God the father and from his son Yeshua the messiah.
1:4 Stick to the original message
4 I was so happy that I found some of your children living out the truth as per the command that the father gave us. 5 [ref]So now I’m requesting you, lady, (not making some new command, but one that we’ve had since the beginning) that we all need to love each other 6 where the definition of love is obeying God’s commands. This is the command about walking in love that you all heard from the beginning 7 because many false preachers have entered the world who don’t believe that Yeshua is the messiah who came as a human. Any person like that is a deceiver and against the messiah.
8 So make sure that you all don’t lose what you’ve worked for, but rather go on to receive a full reward.
9 Anyone who doesn’t stay with the messiah’s teaching or adds more to it doesn’t have God—it’s the person who continues in the his teaching that has both the father and the son with them. 10 If anyone comes to you all and doesn’t bring this same message, don’t accept that person into your house, and don’t tell them that it’s good 11 because anyone who encourages those people is participating in the evil that they’re spreading.
1:12 Closing off
12 I’ve got many things that I wanted to write to you about, but paper and ink aren’t working for me so I’ll try to come and then we can talk directly because I want you all to experience genuine happiness.
13 Your sister’s children (and she’s also a chosen one) send their greetings also.
