2 John 1

⁷ For many deceivers have gone out into the world, refusing to confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.

⁸ Watch yourselves, so that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be fully rewarded.

⁹ Anyone who runs ahead without remaining in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever remains in His teaching has both the Father and the Son.

¹⁰ If anyone comes to you but does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your home or even greet him.

¹¹ Whoever greets such a person shares in his evil deeds.
