    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.

    2 JOHN TRUTH IN LOVE [Matthew 7:21-23 / 1 Corinthians 13:1-4] Second John is a brief epistle which could have been written on a single sheet of papyrus of standard size [5x9].

     | 4,164 views

    As believers, we are called to love our neighbor as ourselves. We are also expected to stand boldly upon the Word regarding the faith. This requires a delicate balance that is only possible through a close relationship with Christ.

    Abiding in Love and Faith 2 John 5-8 As we begin our study today, it is important to remember the context of John’s second epistle. The Gospel was being shared throughout the world and people were responding to the Lord as they heard and received the Gospel. Much of the appeal for the Gospel could ...read more

     | 2,386 views

    There are times when Christians can be inhospitable towards those who are seeking to deceive or cause us to lose enthusiasm for eternity. Who are you accepting and giving credibility to when it comes to directing your spiritual life?

    Message 2 John 1-13 "Sometimes Be Inhospitable” Let’s open our Bible to the letter of 2 John. It is a short letter … 315 words in the NIV translation. … 245 in the original Greek 1 The elder, To the lady chosen by God and to her children, whom I love in the truth—and not I only, but also all ...read more

    First in series on the "Little Guys," those books of Scripture that don’t get as much talk from the pulpits.

    Love the Truth 2 John October 7, 2001 Introduction As I was praying about what God would have me cover over the next few weeks before entering the Christmas season, I was impressed with the idea that we should spend some time in what I call “the little guys,” or small books of the Bible that get ...read more

    As the title of the message suggests, I want to point out and talk about three foundational themes that are essential to the Christian Life.

    In the earliest formation of acting, method actors were likely to be trained thespians. The original actor, Thespis, performed in Greek amphitheaters. Actors were called hypocrites, a Greek word meaning "one who wears a mask." These hypocrites shielded their identity, wore a mask, to ...read more

  • Provoking Thoughts From 2 John

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 10, 2022
     | 2,592 views

    Obviously, we are dealing with 2 John in this message. You have probably noticed that second and third John are very short.

    Second John only has 13 verses. Third John only has 15 verses. But, do not make the mistake of thinking that because these two books are short that it diminishes what John has to say. Illus: John was like some people we meet. They do not say a lot, but they have the most to say when they do ...read more

  • Watch Yourself Series

    Contributed by Larry Grant on Jul 24, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,720 views

    We have come to far to turn back now. We must examine our hearts so we can walk with the Lord and maintain that which He has begun in us! John knew walking with the Lord was not easy in the midst of continual opposition, but he also knew that faith would one day end in sight.

    “Watch Yourself” The salutation "to the chosen lady and to her children" most likely refers to a specific woman and her family. This letter was written shortly after 1 John to warn about false teachers. Little has changed in two thousand years. Advocates of unorthodox beliefs still exist ...read more

  • How Are We To Know The Truth?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 9, 2023
     | 673 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

    Herodotus, the Greek historian, tells this story from ancient history. Hestiaeus wanted Aristagorus to revolt, but could not get a message to him because the roads were guarded.
