2 John 5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ Dear lady, I’m not writing you a new command. I’m writing a command we’ve had from the beginning. I’m asking that we love one another. ⁶ The way we show our love is to obey God’s commands. He commands you to lead a life of love. That’s what you have heard from the beginning.

⁷ I say this because many people have tried to fool others. These people have gone out into the world. They don’t agree that Jesus Christ came in a human body. People like this try to trick others. These people are like the great enemy of Christ.
