The Elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I truly love, and not only I but all who know the truth,

spiritual blessing, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father and Jesus Christ, the Father's Son, in truth and love.

And now I beg you, my lady, not as though I were writing you a new command, but one which we had from the beginning, that we continue to love one another.

Now love means this, that we keep on living in accordance with His commands. The command is this, that we continue to live in love.
