63:001:013 The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.
Book 64 3 John
64:001:001 The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom
I love in the
truth.
64:001:002 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou
mayest prosper and
be
in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
64:001:003 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren
came and testified
of
the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in
the
truth.
64:001:004 I have no greater joy than to hear that
my children walk in
truth.
64:001:005 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever
thou doest to the
brethren,
and to strangers;
64:001:006 Which have borne witness of thy charity
before the church:
whom
if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly
sort,
thou shalt do well:
64:001:007 Because that for his name’s sake
they went forth, taking
nothing
of the Gentiles.
64:001:008 We therefore ought to receive such, that
we might be
fellowhelpers
to the truth.
64:001:009 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes,
who loveth to have
the
preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
64:001:010 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his
deeds which he
doeth,
prating against us with malicious words: and not
content
therewith, neither doth he himself receive the
brethren,
and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out
of
the church.
64:001:011 Beloved, follow not that which is evil,
but that which is
good.
He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth
evil
hath
not seen God.
64:001:012 Demetrius hath good report of all men,
and of the truth
itself:
yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our
record
is true.
64:001:013 I had many things to write, but I will
not with ink and pen
write
unto thee:
64:001:014 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and
we shall speak face
to
face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute
thee. Greet the
friends
by name.
Book 65 Jude
65:001:001 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and
brother of James, to
them
that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved
in
Jesus
Christ, and called:
65:001:002 Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied.
65:001:003 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write
unto you of the
common
salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you,
and
exhort
you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith
which
was once delivered unto the saints.
65:001:004 For there are certain men crept in unawares,
who were before
of
old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning
the
grace
of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only
Lord
God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
