2 John 1 (NKJV)



Greeting the Elect Lady



1 The Elder,



To the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have known the truth, 2 because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:



3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with you[a] from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.



Walk in Christ�s Commandments



4 I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father. 5 And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another. 6 This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.



Beware of Antichrist Deceivers



7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we[b] do not lose those things we worked for, but that we[c] may receive a full reward.



9 Whoever transgresses[d] and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; 11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.



John�s Farewell Greeting



12 Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.



13 The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

Focus on the truth!



Is God sending millions of people to a napalm environment forever even if they never heard of Jesus?



What does the fulness of Christ formed in us mean?



When we physically die does our spirit/soul continue to live on or do we have to wait for a resurrection?



Is Jesus really going to have a complete personality change and come back to kill the enemies of Jerusalem?



Jesus said the church would heal the sick and do even greater works than done in His time........ is this happening today?



These are just a couple of questions we need to consider before moving past WHAT IS THE TRUTH?

You should do another forum thread on those questions, those would make for good discussion.
