Who does not bring this teaching. "If someone comes who claims to be a brother, but does not bring this teaching that Jesus Christ came as a human being to be the means of our salvation, then have nothing to do with him!" John connects love with truth and the commandment. One who purposely denies the basic fact of the Logos in human form, and so destroys the "act of God in Christ," cannot be allowed to continue as part of the messianic community (church). Compare Romans 16:17; Philippians 3:17.
