2 John / Question
Question source
2 John
2 John says, “Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God” (2 John 1:9). By contrast, “whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son” (2 John 1:9). The statement makes abiding in the teaching the dividing line for having God in this letter’s terms (2 John 1:9).
9Whoever transgresses and doesn`t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn`t have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.
