Any one who keeps doing what is bad has never seen God. \v 11 Dear friend, do not imitate a bad example like that. Instead, keep imitating good examples.

\v 12 All the believers who know Demetrius say that he is a good person. If the truth were a person, he would say the same thing! We also say he is a good person, and you know that what we say about him is true. \v 12 All the believers who know Demetrius say that he is a good person.

\v 3 You whom I love, I tried very hard to write a letter to you about how God has saved us all together. I needed to write to encourage you to do your best to speak for the true things that we believe. These are things that God has taught all those who have been made holy by faith in Christ. These things will never change. \v 3 You whom I love, I tried very hard to write a letter to you about how God has saved us all together.

\v 4 Some people are like snakes crawling into your assemblies. They teach false things. They say that because God kindly does for us what we do not deserve, it does not matter whether we sin sexually.

In this way they oppose what is true about Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord.

\v 6 Also, there were many angels to whom God assigned positions of authority in heaven. But they did not continue to rule with authority in those positions. Instead, they abandoned those places. So God has put those angels in chains forever in darkness in hell. They will stay there until the important day in which God will judge and punish them. \v 6 Also, there were many angels to whom God assigned positions of authority in heaven.
