Rejoicing and Walking In the Truth - 2 John 4-11

What a joy comes to one's heart to see our spiritual children stepping out having received God's truth at birth as our heavenly father said from His fount From that sane fount springs forth love to love one another at the father's command this is not new but have always heard so walk in His truth so to truly stand Beware of deceivers in this world who won't confess Christ to have come such are the deceiver and the antichrist denying Jesus makes you spiritually numb Be on your watch so don't lose your reward keep true to Christ always connect to abide in this teaching being a true follower for if not you don't have God turning aside Whoever comes without teaching this truth don't receive him, doing so makes you a part of his wicked schemes denying your Christ rejoice and walk in truth reveals your heart (I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as we were commanded by the Father. And now I ask you, dear lady—not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning—that we love one another. And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning so that you should walk in it. For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. Watch yourselves, so that you may not lose what we have worked for, but may win a full reward. Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.) 2 John vs 4-11 (ESV) (I chose these verses as they are most relevant in today's world, especially for every Christian believer to be acting in accordance to these truths.)

Thanks once again Jenny for your high praise of myself and my writings, you are such a huge encouragement to my pen and myself. How are you in Joburg? I have heard you are getting it rough as your pandemic numbers continue to increase. Over here we're up to level 4 with all cafes, restaurants and shops closed for 3 weeks except for essential shops. Hugs and blessings, Gordon
