2 John 1:9-10

What is the Doctrine of Christ?

John 7:14-17
Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 And the Jews marveled, saying, “How does this Man know letters, having never studied?”
16 Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.
17 “If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or [whether] I speak on My own [authority.]

John 8:26-28
“I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I heard from Him.”

John 12:48-50
“He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him–the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.
49 “For I have not spoken on My own [authority;] but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.
50 “And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.”

24 “He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me.
31 “But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

What are the Fathers Words?

1 Timothy 6:3-5
If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness,
4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,
5 useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a [means of] gain. From such withdraw yourself.

Hebrews 6:1-2

18 And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.
