2Jo 10-11 | TNotes | STEP | Summary for 2John 1:10-11: 1:10-11 Believers should not invite that person , who does not teach the truth about Christ, into their homes. The early churches met in homes (see Acts 2:46 ; 5:42 ; 8:3 ; 12:5 , 12 ; Col 4:15 ; Phlm 1:2 ), so this could refer to inviting false teachers to a meeting of the church. It could also refer to giving any form of hospitality to false teachers, which would help their mission. The only way to deal with them was to not accept them into the fellowship.
