Episode 62: 2nd John

Today's meditation is based on the 2nd Book of John from the Passion Translation

I love all those who are in the truth. The living truth that has a permanent home in me and will be with me forever.

Grace, mercy, and peace belong to me, flowing from the presence of God the Father and from Jesus Christ, Son of the Father and from the realm of true love.

I am delighted and filled with joy and I constantly live in the truth, just as I have received the command from the Father.

I constantly love others. This love means living in obedience to whatever God commands me. For to walk in love toward one another is the unifying commandment I’ve heard from the beginning.

I know there are numerous deceivers who have surfaced from among the believers and gone out into the world. They do not acknowledge Jesus Christ coming as a man. These deceivers are antichrists. So I am on my guard so that I do not lose all that I have diligently worked for but receive a full reward.

I do not wander away or become unfruitful to the teaching of Christ, because I have a relationship with God. I remain in the teaching of Christ and have a wonderful relationship with both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes along claiming to be a true believer yet doesn’t bring this teaching, I don't consider him as a fellow believer, nor do I welcome him into my home. For if I welcome him as a believer, I will be partnering with him in his evil agenda.

But I look forward to every opportunity to spend time with fellow believers, as being in fellowship with the body of Christ completes my joy!

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
