¹⁰ Someone may come to you and teach you something that is different. Do not receive that person into your house. Do not receive him as a Christian. ¹¹ If you receive people like that as Christian people, you are making yourself the same as them. You also are doing the same kind of bad work.

¹² I want to tell you many more things, but I do not want to write about them in a letter. Instead, I hope to come and visit you. Then I can see you and we can talk together. Then we will be completely happy.
