2 João 1:2

2 por causa da verdade que permanece em nós e estará conosco para sempre.

2 João 1:2 Meaning and Commentary

2 John 1:2

For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us
Not for her high birth, nobility, or riches; but either for Christ's sake, who is the truth, and who dwells in the hearts of believers by faith, and who is the same that dwells in one as in another; and on his account it is that saints love one another, because they belong to him, he is formed in them, and his image is stamped upon them; and every like loves its like: or for the Gospel's sake, which has a place, and dwells in every saint, and is the same for matter and substance in one as in another; and unity of mind and judgment produces unity of affection: or for the sake of the truth of grace, the inward principle of grace, which dwells in every regenerate person; a communication of the experience of which knits the saints one to another:

and shall be with us for ever;
where Christ enters and takes up his abode, from thence he never finally and totally departs, though he may sometimes hide his face with respect to communion, or withdraw his gracious presence; and where the Gospel has once took place in the heart, and is become the ingrafted word, it can never be rooted out, or be removed; and where the truth of grace is, it will remain; it is an incorruptible seed, a well of living water, springing up into eternal life.

2 João 1:2 In-Context

1 O presbíteroà senhora eleita e aos seus filhos, a quem amo na verdade—e não apenas eu os amo, mas também todos os que conhecem a verdade—,

2 por causa da verdade que permanece em nós e estará conosco para sempre.

3 A graça, a misericórdia e a paz da parte de Deus Pai e de Jesus Cristo, seu Filho, estarão conosco em verdade e em amor.

4 Ao encontrar alguns dos seus filhos, muito me alegrei, pois eles estão andando na verdade, conforme o mandamento que recebemos do Pai.

5 E agora eu lhe peço, senhora—não como se estivesse escrevendo um mandamento novo, mas o que já tínhamos desde o princípio—que amemos uns aos outros.
