Journaling 2 John, 3 John, Jude
📖 2 John 1 – Walk in Love and Truth
Summary:
John wrote this short letter to a lady and her children (could mean a church), reminding them to love one another and to obey God's truth. He also warned them not to follow or welcome false teachers who do not teach the truth about Jesus.
Key Verse:
“This is love: that we walk in obedience to His commands.” – 2 John 1:6
Reflection:
Love is not just saying nice things. It means we obey God and follow His Word. When we stay close to the truth, we stay close to God.
Response:
I want to walk in God's truth every day. I must not follow people who twist God’s message. I will be careful with what I read or hear.
📖 3 John 1 – Be Kind and Do Good
Summary:
John praised Gaius for being faithful and kind, especially to missionaries and fellow believers. He reminded them not to be like Diotrephes, a proud man who rejected others, but instead follow the example of good people.
Key Verse:
“Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good.” – 3 John 1:11
Reflection:
We must choose to be kind, helpful, and humble—like Gaius. People who love God show it through actions, not just words.
Response:
I will help others in my church and show hospitality when I can. I want to be remembered as someone who chooses good, not evil.
📖 Jude 1 – Stand Strong in the Faith
Summary:
Jude warned about people in the church teaching wrong things and living in sin. He told believers to fight for their faith, pray, stay strong in God's love, and help others without falling into sin themselves.
Key Verse:
“Build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.” – Jude 1:20
Reflection:
It’s easy to be influenced by the world or bad teachings. But we must stay strong in God’s Word and pray more. God will keep us safe if we stick with Him.
Response:
I will continue to read the Bible and pray, even when I feel weak. I will encourage my church friends to stay faithful and help those who are struggling.
