2 John 7-11
Legacy Standard Bible
7 For (A)many deceivers have (B)gone out into the world, those who (C)do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is (D)the deceiver and the (E)antichrist. 8 (F)See to yourselves, (G)that you do not lose what we accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward. 9 [a]Anyone who [b]goes too far and (H)does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. The one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, (I)do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting, 11 for the one who gives him a greeting [c](J)participates in his evil deeds.

2 John 7-11
American Standard Version
7 For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, even they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that ye [a]lose not the things which [b]we have wrought, but that ye receive a full reward. 9 Whosoever [c]goeth onward and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God: he that abideth in the teaching, the same hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If any one cometh unto you, and bringeth not this teaching, receive him not into your house, and give him no greeting: 11 for he that giveth him greeting partaketh in his evil works.
