2 John 1:11 in Context — 2 John 1

9 Quiconque va plus loin et ne demeure pas dans la doctrine de Christ n’a point Dieu; celui qui demeure dans cette doctrine a le Père et le Fils.

10 Si quelqu’un vient à vous et n’apporte pas cette doctrine, ne le recevez pas dans votre maison, et ne lui dites pas: Salut!

11 car celui qui lui dit: Salut! Participe à ses mauvaises œuvres.

12 Quoique j’eusse beaucoup de choses à vous écrire, je n’ai pas voulu le faire avec le papier et l’encre; mais j’espère aller chez vous, et vous parler bouche à bouche, afin que notre joie soit parfaite.

13 Les enfants de ta sœur l’élue te saluent.
