The King James Clarified (KJC) New Testament

The Second Letter Of John

• 1:1 The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
• 1:2 For the truth's sake, which dwells in us, and shall be with us forever.
• 1:3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
• 1:4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of your children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
• 1:5 And now I beseech you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto you, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
• 1:6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.
• 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
• 1:8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
• 1:9 Whosoever transgresses, and abides not in the doctrine of Christ, has not God. He that abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.
• 1:10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
• 1:11 For he that bids him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
• 1:12 Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
• 1:13 The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.
