John |
|
1:1: The elder
unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I
only, but also all they that have known the truth; |
|
1:2:
For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever. |
|
1:3:
Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord
Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. |
|
1:4: I
rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have
received a commandment from the Father. |
|
1:5:
And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto
thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. |
|
1:6:
And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the
commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it. |
|
1:7:
For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus
Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. |
|
1:8:
Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but
that we receive a full reward. |
|
1:9:
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not
God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and
the Son. |
