3 John 1:9-12 - Diotrephes And Demetrius

9 I wrote something to the church, but Diotrephes, loving the preeminence over them, does not receive us. 10 On account of this, if I may come, I will remember his works which he is doing, berating us with wicked speeches: and not content with these, he does not receive the brethren, and he prohibits them wishing to receive them, and casts them out of the church.

11 Beloved, imitate not the evil, but the good. The one doing good is of God: the one doing evil has not seen God. 12 To Demetrius it has been testified by all, and by the truth itself: and we also testify: and you know that our testimony is true.
