You might want to take a look at 2 Jn 2
 
2διὰ τὴν ἀλήθειαν τὴν μένουσαν ἐνἡμῖνκαὶ μεθʼ ἡμῶν ἔσται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.
 
2 DIA THN ALHQEIAN THN MENOUSAN EN hHMIN KAI MEQ' hHMWN ESTAI EIS TON AIWNA.
 
 
This has both in succession.  It seems to me that EN with the dat generally means "in" in the sense of among signifying presence within a person or group while META (or MEQ') generally signifies accompaniment.

1 Jn 4:17 has EN TOUTWi TETELEIWTAI hH AGAPH MEQ' hHMWN.



Is there a nuance here that makes this means something different from EN
TOUTWi TETELEIWTAI hH AGAPH EN hHMIN?
