Abide In The Teaching Of Christ

Today's Focus Scripture - 2 John 2-9

2 for the sake of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:
3 Grace, mercy and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 I was very glad to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have received commandment to do from the Father.
5 Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing to you a new commandment, but the one which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.
6 And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what we have accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward.
9 Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son.


We are truly and incredibly blessed because God the Father, through His Son Jesus Christ, has given us revelation of His truth and love.  And now grace, mercy and peace are ours through the Son, our Savior and Messiah, Jesus Christ.

We ended up discussing the verses following, but the main idea we dwelt upon is to abide in the teachings of Christ.
