The Message
2 John 3-6
The Message
3 Let grace, mercy, and peace be with us in truth and love from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, Son of the Father!
4-6 I can’t tell you how happy I am to learn that many members of your congregation are diligent in living out the Truth, exactly as commanded by the Father. But permit me a reminder, friends, and this is not a new commandment but simply a repetition of our original and basic charter: that we love each other. Love means following his commandments, and his unifying commandment is that you conduct your lives in love. This is the first thing you heard, and nothing has changed.

2 John 3-5
New International Version
3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ,(A) the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.
4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth,(B) just as the Father commanded us. 5 And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning.(C) I ask that we love one another.
