by Luke Moyer
2 John 1:1-3
From the elder, to the lady chosen by God and her children. I truly love you all, and I am not the only one but all who know the truth love you as well. We love you for the sake of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be ours the gift of God, the Father, and of Jesus Christ, the Father's Son in truth and love.
