This is the commandment, as ye have heard from the beginning, that ye should walk in it. $$ JN2 1:7 For many deceivers went out into the world, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ coming in the flesh; this is the deceiver and the antichrist. $$ JN2 1:8 Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye wrought, but receive a full reward. $$ JN2 1:9 Whoever goeth beyond, and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the teaching, he hath both the Son and the Father. $$ JN2 1:10 If any one cometh to you, and bringeth not this teaching, receive him not into your house, and do not bid him good speed. $$ JN2 1:11 For he that biddeth him good speed taketh part in his evil deeds. $$ JN2 1:12 Having many things to write to you, I would not write with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be full. $$ JN2 1:13 The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
