3 que la grâce, la miséricorde et la paix soient avec vous de la part de Dieu le Père et de la part de Jésus-Christ, le Fils du Père, dans la vérité et la charité!
4 J’ai été fort réjoui de trouver de tes enfants qui marchent dans la vérité, selon le commandement que nous avons reçu du Père.
5 Et maintenant, ce que je te demande, Kyria, non comme te prescrivant un commandement nouveau, mais celui que nous avons eu dès le commencement, c’est que nous nous aimions les uns les autres.
6 Et l’amour consiste à marcher selon ses commandements. C’est là le commandement dans lequel vous devez marcher, comme vous l’avez appris dès le commencement.
7 Car plusieurs séducteurs sont entrés dans le monde, qui ne confessent point que Jésus-Christ est venu en chair. Celui qui est tel, c’est le séducteur et l’antéchrist.
