  Setting the Table       " And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.   But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.   I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

  The Mother and Her Children         " The elder unto the elect lady and her children , whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;   For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever.   Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.   I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.   And now I beseech thee, lady , not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.   And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.   For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh . This is a decei...
