2 John 1:8-13

8Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.

9Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

10If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.

11Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.

12I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

13The children of your sister, who is chosen by God, send their greetings.
