    If there is one thing to summarize the message of 2 John, it’s walking with God. 2 John teaches us how to walk with Jesus and he’s does it in 300 words. And if we will take what John says and do it, we’ll experience "a joy that's complete."

    Walking with God Hannah Kaufold tells the story of signing up to lead a pilgrimage across northern Spain to visit the remains of one of Jesus’ BFFs: St. James. It was 500 miles long. She thought she was signing up for this cool adventure where she got to talk about Jesus and go for a long ...read more

    All who claim loyalty to Jesus must be committed to truth & love. We are to follow the truth and act with love toward one another. Love though is not to overshadow or overcome truth.

    Have you been weighed in God’s balance and found wanting on the side of Truth? Or have you been weighed and found wanting on the side of Love? Biblically speaking, falling short in one is falling short in both! May we seek God’s grace and mercy today for

    Intro: The Apostle John personally wrote to the “elect lady” who seemed to have erred on the side of love and also needed to take heed on the side of truth.

    Gratitude For The Faithful

    Writing to the "elect lady," John was aware of the delicate balance needed to show grace to those who had wronged her while refusing to compromise her convictions and faith. We must love others, but we cannot compromise our faith for the favor of men.

Along with the gospel that bears his name, and Revelation, John also wrote 1, 2, and 3rd John. It is believed to have been written around AD 85-95, near the end of John’s life. ...read more

    How Are We To Know The Truth?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 9, 2023
     | 642 views

    The emphasis of Second John chapter 2 is on the basics of following Christ, of truth and love, and to warn against false teachers. We are not to just read the Word of God, but we are to obey it as well.

    When a believer knows how to walk in the truth, he or she should know how to act, should know what to do, is willing to learn, and is determined to do so. In verses 1-3: The “elder” is John, one of twelve disciples. He also is the author of the Gospel of John, the three epistles, and the book of ...read more
