Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father's Son, in truth and love.
4
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.
