MANY DECEIVERS HAVE GONE OUT INTO THE WORLD

 

7 Many Deceivers,

Who Do Not Acknowledge Jesus Christ

As Coming in the Flesh,

Have Gone Out into the World.

Any Such Person is the Deceiver

And the Antichrist.

8 WATCH OUT

THAT YOU DO NOT LOSE

WHAT WE HAVE WORKED FOR,

But that you may be Rewarded Fully.

9 Anyone who Runs Ahead

And Does Not Continue

In the Teaching of Christ

DOES NOT HAVE GOD;

Whoever Continues in the Teaching

Has Both the Father and the Son.

10 If Anyone Comes to You

AND DOES NOT BRING THIS TEACHING,

DO NOT TAKE THEM INTO YOUR HOUSE

OR WELCOME THEM.

11 ANYONE WHO WELCOMES THEM

SHARES IN THEIR WICKED WORK.

(2 John 7-11, NIV)
