{\MT John’s Second Letter

\par }\OneChap {\PP \VerseOne{1}The ancient
to
the
lady
Elect,
and
her
children,
whom
I
love
in
the
truth,
and
not
I
only,
but
also
all
they
that
have
known
the
truth,
\VS{2}For
the
sake
of
the
truth
which dwelleth
in
us,
and
shall
be
with
us
for
ever.
\VS{3}Grace
be
with
you,
mercy,
and
peace
from
God
the
Father,
and
from
Christ
Jesus
the
Son
of
the
Father;
in
truth
and charity.
\VS{4}I
was exceeding
glad,
that
I
found
of thy
children
walking
in
truth,
as
we
have
received
a
commandment
from
the
Father.
\VS{5}And
now
I beseech thee,
lady,
not
as
writing
a
new
commandment
to thee,
but
that
which
we
have
had
from
the
beginning,
that
we
love
one
another.
\VS{6}And
this
is charity,
that
we
walk
according
to
his
commandments.
For
this
is
the
commandment,
that,
as
you
have
heard
from
the
beginning,
you
should
walk
in
the
same:
\VS{7}For
many seducers
are
gone
out
into
the
world,
who
confess
not
that
Jesus
Christ
is
come
in
the
flesh:
this
is
a seducer
and
an
antichrist.
\VS{8}Look
to
yourselves,
that
you
lose
not
the
things
which
you
have wrought:
but
that
you
may
receive
a
full
reward.
\VS{9}Whosoever revolteth,
and continueth
not
in
the doctrine
of
Christ, hath
not
God.
He
that continueth
in
the doctrine,
the
same hath
both
the
Father
and
the
Son.
\VS{10}If
any
man
come
to
you,
and
bring
not
this doctrine,
receive
him
not
into
the
house
nor
say
to
him,
God speed
you.
\VS{11}For
he
that saith unto
him,
God speed
you, communicateth
with
his
wicked
works.
\VS{12}Having
more
things
to
write unto
you,
I
would
not
by
paper
and
ink:
for
I
hope
that
I
shall
be
with
you,
and
speak
face
to
face:
that
your
joy
may
be
full.
\VS{13}The
children
of thy
sister
Elect salute thee.
