I was greatly delighted to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

and now, my lady, I beg our love may be mutual, since what I write, is no new prescription, but what was originally enjoin'd.

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.

For there are many impostors started up in the world, who will not own that Jesus Christ was incarnate. such a one is an impostor and an anti-christ.

Having many things to write to you, I was not willing by paper and ink: but I hope to come to you, and to speak mouth to month, that our joy might be filled up.
