2 John 1:5-11 - Warning Against False Teachers

⁵ Now I ask you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. ⁶ This is love that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment that you heard from the beginning. You should walk in it.

⁷ For many deceivers have gone into the world. They do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. ⁸ Watch yourselves that you do not lose the things that we worked to produce. You may receive a full reward. ⁹ Whoever pushes ahead and does not remain in the teaching of Christ, does not have God! He who dwells in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. ¹⁰ Do not receive anyone into your house who comes to you and does not bring this teaching. Give him no greeting! ¹¹ He who greets him partakes of his evil works.
