2 John 1:8-13

8 Watch out that you don't lose what you have worked for. Make sure that you get your complete reward.
9 Some people run ahead of others. They don't follow the teaching of Christ. People like that don't belong to God. But those who follow the teaching of Christ belong to the Father and the Son.
10 Suppose someone comes to you and doesn't teach these truths. Then don't take him into your house. Don't welcome him.
11 Anyone who welcomes him shares in his evil work.
12 I have a lot to write to you. But I don't want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope I can visit you. Then I can talk with you face to face. That will make our joy complete.
13 The children of your chosen sister send their greetings.
