2 John
- Journal & Pray. Here are some tools to help you with the devotionals:
-
Read & Reflect
2 JOHN 1-4
-
Notice the emphasis on truth and love. What is the basis of Christian love?
-
How did Jesus love me in “truth and love” so that I now have “grace, mercy and peace … from God”?
2 JOHN 4-6
-
Have I ever experienced a sentiment similar to John’s towards those who are “walking in the truth”?
-
Reflect on the words “command,” “obedience,” and “love.” How does the fact that love is a command, and a matter of obedience affect my commitment and thinking regarding loving people God has placed in my life?
2 JOHN 10-11
-
Why does John take such a firm stance against welcoming false teachers into the believers’ homes?
-
What might have been some Christian arguments for (and results of) believers taking these false teachers into their homes just as a basic act of kindness?
-
What warning does this give me regarding the difficulty of remaining uninfluenced by those with whom I spend time?
