1:1 The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love inside of truth, and not I only, but also all those who have known the truth, 2 through the truth that lives and remains inside of us and that will be actively with us into the age. 3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us in intimate participation with God the Father and in intimate participation with Jesus Christ, the Son out from the Father, inside of truth and love. • 4 I rejoiced exceedingly because I have learned of your children walking inside of truth, just as we received full completion in intimate participation with the Father. 5 And now I implore you, my lady, not as if I am writing a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the start, • that we should love one another. 6 And this is love, that we should walk according to His full completion. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the start, so that you should walk inside of it. 7 For many who lead astray have entered into the world-cosmos, those who do not speak the same word of Jesus Christ presently come inside of flesh [a]. This is the one who leads astray and the one who speaks contrary to Christ. 8 Watch yourselves, so that you should not lose the things we have accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward. 9 Anyone going on [into other things] and not living and remaining inside of the teaching of Christ, does not possess God. The one who lives and remains inside of the teaching, this one possesses both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you not carrying this teaching, do not receive him into the house, and do not greet him. 11 For the one greeting him shares in his malicious and miserable works. 12 Having many things to write to you, I purposed not to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you and speak with you in direct conversation, so that our joy may be completed. 13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Let it be so; it is so. |
