5 Now I ask you, dear lady, that we love one another. It is not as though I am writing you a new command, but the one we have had from the beginning.
6 Now this is love: that we walk according to His commands. This is the commandment—just as you heard from the beginning—that you walk in love.
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world—those who do not acknowledge Yeshua as Messiah coming in human flesh. This one is a deceiver and the anti-messiah.
8 Watch yourselves, so you do not lose what we have worked for but receive a full reward.
9 Anyone who goes too far and does not remain in Messiah’s teaching does not have God. Anyone who remains in this teaching has both the Father and the Son.
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not welcome him into your home or even give him a greeting.
11 For the one greeting him shares in his evil deeds.
