2 John 1:3-7

3Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

4I was very glad to find some of your children walking in truth, in keeping with a command we have received from the Father.

5So now I ask you, dear lady — not as if I were writing you a new command, but one we have had from the beginning — that we love one another.

6This is love: that we walk according to his commands. This is the command as you have heard it from the beginning: that you walk in love.

7Many deceivers have gone out into the world; they do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
