2 & 3 John – Pesky Deceivers


“Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.” -3 John 1:11

In these short twenty-seven verses we find that there are those that are walking in truth and those that are being deceptive. And how do we tell them apart? Those that imitate what is good (walk in truth, obey God’s commands, and love) are from God. Those who do what is evil have not seen Him.

So Gaius not only knew the truth, but he lived what he believed. How about us? Will we be faithful to the truth? Will our actions and words match up regardless of whom we’re around? Will we commit to representing Christ well?

So two things are clear: know truth and walk in love.

  1. I greatly REJOICE in the fact that my JOY does not depend on the present trials. I greatly rejoice in the knowledge that His Truth brings freedom. I greatly REJOICE in the love poured upon my child Bella thorough the service of His saints at Cedarbrook! Thank you for knowing the truth and walking in His LOVE!
