It's Day 40 and we're in 2 John 1.
Sometimes things get busy
and you miss a day or two. Don’t get
discouraged and quit. Just lay aside
those readings you missed and jump in with today’s reading.
Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verse 6 - Another straightforward verse on the fact that real faith is obedient faith.
Help:
- Verse 1 - "chosen lady and her children" - Two possibilities: (1) The letter is addressed to a Christian woman and her children; (2) It's addressed to a woman who was the leader of a church and "her children" refers to the people within the church she's brought to the Lord.
- Verse 7 - "antichrist" - This does mean that they are THE Anti-Christ, but that they have the spirit of Anti-Christ in what they're doing.
- Verse 9 - The teachers Paul is warning about had added to the instruction the apostles had given them, altering the truth of the gospel into something different.
- Verse 11 - We should not support those who teach what is Biblically wrong.
