2 John 1:4

Walking in the Truth

3Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, will be with us in truth and love.4I was overjoyed to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father has commanded us.5And now I urge you, dear lady—not as a new commandment to you, but one we have had from the beginning—that we love one another.
