This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it. 7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world—those who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Watch yourselves, so that you do not lose what we have worked for, but may receive a full reward. 9 Anyone who goes beyond and does not remain in the teaching of Christ does not have God.

You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God. 7 For they went out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore, we ought to support people like these so that we may be fellow workers for the truth. 9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, does not acknowledge us. 10 Because of this, if I come, I will bring up what he is doing: spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers, and he also prevents others who want to do so and expels them from the church. 11 Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God. 12 Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself. We also testify, and you know that our testimony is true. 13 I had many things to write, but I do not want to write to you with ink and pen. 14 But I hope to see you soon, and we will speak face to face. 15 Peace be with you. The friends here greet you. Greet the friends there by name.
