10. When I come, I will talk with him about what he is doing. He lies and says evil things about us, but that is not all. He refuses to welcome and help the believers who travel there. And he will not let others help them. If they do, he stops them from meeting with the church anymore.
11. My dear friend, don’t follow what is bad; follow what is good. Whoever does what is good is from God. But whoever does evil has never known God.
12. Everyone says good things about Demetrius, and the truth agrees with what they say. Also, we say good about him. And you know that what we say is true.
13. I have many things I want to tell you. But I don’t want to use pen and ink.
14. I hope to visit you soon. Then we can be together and talk.
15. Peace to you. The friends here with me send their love. Please give our love to each one of the friends there.
