Imitate What Is Good

spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years. Gods
Not Dead!
“For God did not give us a spirit of
timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7 - New King James Version (NKJV)
Dear
Saints,
This epistle is addressed
to a converted Gentile. The scope is to commend his stedfastness in the
faith, and his hospitality, especially to the ministers of Christ.
The
apostle commends Gaius for piety and hospitality. (1-8) Cautions
him against siding with Diotrephes, who was a turbulent spirit; but
recommends Demetrius as a man of excellent character.(9-12) He
hopes soon to see Gaius. (13,14)” - Matthew Henry Concise
The apostle John encourages Gaius to continue
to be hospitable with his coworkers, (see 3 John 1:1-8 )
and to honor them with the truth. Though the temper
and spirit of Diotrephes was prideful (see
3 John 1:9-12) he urges Gaius to continue what is
good and right with God. John has more to say but he would like to
share it in person; “13
I had many things to write, but I do not wish to write to you with pen and
ink; 14 but I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace
to you. Our friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.” 3
John 1:13-14 NKJV. We are
encouraged to imitate Jesus (see
3 John 1:11) by doing what is good and right in every instance. “16
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the
man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work. ” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV. What is written
in the Word of God (see Romans
15:4) is there to give us hope and encouragement in the scriptures. All scripture written in God’s Word (see
2
Peter 1:20-21) is given to us by the
Holy Spirit.
Do you want to trust God? If the answer is yes; today is the
day of your salvation! Don’t wait another minute to leave, change or
quit anything (see Revelation 3:20) Jesus is at knocking
at your door this minute. He wants you to come just as you
are! Do you hear Jesus calling you? Will you answer Him
today? Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your
life? If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the
