Salutation and Greeting
1
The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all they that know the truth;
2
for the truth’s sake which abideth in us, and it shall be with us for ever:
3
Grace, mercy, peace shall be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
