Beware of Antichrist Deceivers

7 For amany deceivers have gone out into the world bwho do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. cThis is a deceiver and an antichrist.  
8 aLook to yourselves, bthat we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.  
9 aWhoever1 transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son.  
10 If anyone comes to you and adoes not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him;  
11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

John’s Farewell Greeting

12 aHaving many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, bthat our joy may be full.

2 John 1:9

Whosoever transgresseth - · He who passes over the sacred enclosure, or goes beyond the prescribed limits; and abideth not in the doctrine - does not remain within these holy limits, but indulges himself either in excesses of action or passion; hath not God for his Father, nor the love of God in his heart.

Hath both the father and the Son - He who abideth in the doctrine of Christ, his body is a temple of the Holy Trinity, and he has communion with the Father as his Father, and with the Son as his Savior and Redeemer.
