STRANGERS TESTIFY
STRANGERS TESTIFY
3 John 6 & 7
They have testified to the church about your love. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.
For they went out on behalf of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles.
Church - 'called out from the world to God' -
a people belonging to the Lord.
If you belong to the Lord, you are the church, you are a part of the body of Christ. If you do not belong to the Lord, you are not the church, nor are you a part of the body of Christ.
But you could be. And, someday, should you answer the call to salvation through Jesus Christ, you might be.
We can only hope and pray that such a time
should come for you.

MISSION SUPPORT
3 John 8
Therefore, we ought to support such men so that we might be coworkers of the Truth.
1 Corinthians 3:8-9, 11
He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building. ... For no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.

IMITATE GOOD
Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.
Psalm 34:14
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
Psalm 37:27
Turn away from evil and do good, so that you will abide forever.
