Love Others As Christ Loves Us

 John is often called 'the apostle of love', and here he expressed his Christian love in a short letter to the 'elect lady' and her children because they were all born of the Spirit, children of God, one with the Lord, positioned in Christ, and part of His Body which is the Church. 
 But John was also an apostle that held fast to the unchanging and unchangeable truth of God's Word and the love that he expressed for this woman, and all who would read this short epistle, is one of godly concern that none of us stray from the truth of God's Word, together with a reassurance that the Word of truth which abides in us will be with us through time and into eternity.
 We are called on many occasions to Love Others As Christ Loves Us, and the aging apostle John demonstrated deep love for all believers by speaking to them often of the gospel of Christ, encouraging them in their Christian walk, reminding them to hold fast to that which is good, and warning them of against straying from the truth of the gospel of Christ.
2 John 1:2 because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we praise and thank You for the truth of Your Word and the Holy Spirit Who dwells in us. Thank You for Your promise that He will guide us into all truth. Thank You for Jesus Who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. In His precious name we Pray, AMEN.
