3 John 1:9-12 - Diotrephes And Demetrius
9 I wrote to the assembly; but Diotrephes, who loves to have preeminence among them, receives us not. 10 On this account, if I come, I will remember his works which he is doing, prating against us with evil words; and not content with these things, he neither himself receives the brethren, and those wishing to do so he forbids, and casts them out of the assembly.
11 Beloved, do not imitate the evil, but the good. He that does good is of God; the evil-doer has not seen God. 12 To Demetrius testimony has been borne by all, and by the truth itself; and we also bear testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.
