God’s main concern is that we love one another the way He loves us. 2 John 1:6 says: And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. If we are obedient to the Father, then we will love others. Everything we do should be in love as a reflection of His love for us.

The way we know our eternity is secure is through salvation that can only come through Christ Jesus. 1 John 5:12 says, He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. Once we have Christ living in us, we can rest assured of our salvation.

Just like a parent loves their child before the child even knows what love is, God loved us first as well. 1 John 4:19 says: We love because he first loved us. We will know what true love looks like when we allow God’s love to reflect through us.

Sin is sin, there is no getting around it. And when we sin, we live as though there is no right or wrong. 1 John 3:4 says: Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness. It is one thing to sin, it is something completely different to continue sinning. We all sin, but we can not hide from continual sin and act as though it is normal. When we sin, we must confess our sin and work towards sinning no more.

If we are not willing to act like one of God’s children then we must question whether we really are one of His children. 1 John 2:4 says, The man who says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Obedience is the reflection of who we are in Christ.

“The proof is in the pudding.” This is one of my favorite sayings. The truth finds it’s way to the surface based on the results of our actions. 1 John 1:6 says, If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. Our actions toward God are the proof of our love for Him. If we walk with Him, it will be apparent in all we do, say, and feel.

We have to keep ourselves close to God and to build a relationship with Him. Jude 1:21 says, Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life. To keep ourselves close means to live in close relationship to God and other believers like us.

At times, we may think God moves slowly when it comes to answering our prayers. But it is important to remember that God is not on our timeline, nor does He move according to our will. 2 Peter 3:9 says, The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to parish, but everyone to come to repentance. God moves in accordance with His will and timeline to give all of us time to find Him. It may seem as though people are no longer looking for God, but He is not about the numbers. He is simply waiting on all who are willing to believe and come to Him.
