I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true;

It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.

And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.

Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward.

Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.

The children of your noble sister, who is of God's selection, send you their love.
