DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  2 JOHN 1:9-11

(9)  Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.  He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ,  he hath both the Father and Son.
(10) If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
(11)  For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

DON'T REJECT ME, I AM FOR YOU!

Brethren, those people who are arrogant and prideful, claimed to know all things of this world, but regard not the gospel truth, that Jesus Christ is a son of our Father, born into the flesh, and when on planet earth, ministered to humanity things of the kingdom of heaven, at the end of his ministry, suffered for iniquities of humanity, died on the cross, resurrected from the death, took the keys of hell and death from the devil, ascended into heavenly places, seated on right hand of our Father, as an advocate to all who believe in him; and he is coming back again soon to receive the whole world unto himself;  they are children of perdition and do not belong to our Father, but belong to the enemy; the devil; however, those who accept and believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, they are children who belong in the eternal kingdom family of our Father and are joint heirs with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior forevermore.

Case in point, after we have been saved, born again into the kingdom family of our Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior; the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit constrains believers from association of unbelievers; at times, unbelievers drop out of our associations themselves, once we become born again Christians; though we may have associated ourselves among ungodly societies, friendships and family circles before we became born again Christians; unbelievers will depart from our lives, because we become lights of the world; therefore, when unbelievers depart from our lives suddenly because of our faith in Jesus Christ; let us not for courtesy or eye service sake try to win them over on our sides, to continue to associate ourselves within those circles; for, it is written in book of 2 Corinthians 6:14, saying;  "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?";  however, as believers called out of darkness into marvelous lights to save souls, we can still reach out to unbelievers, but not necessarily to associate ourselves with them; but for facts that we need to get closer to them, to minister the gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior and to convert them into the faith of his righteousness; therefore, before we endeavor to convert anyone with the gospel of Jesus Christ; let us be sure that our foundations are stronger the faith of Jesus Christ;  for, the enemy will try to hinder our agendas, to overcome our good works with evil attacks, to bring us back into our own vomits of ungodliness; that is the major reason why the text does not encourage believers to associate or entertain unbelievers who live their lives in ungodliness.

Fruit of thoughts, the text clearly states that when we come in contact with unbelievers who are in darkness, after we might have ministered words of our Father through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior unto them, but they refuse to hear but reject his words, we should not extend the goodwill of our Father upon them; for it is written in the book of Matthew 10:13;  "And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you."; therefore, when we do our parts as ministers of the gospel, but children of perdition turn deaf ears, refuse to hear true words of our Father; receive Jesus Christ into their hearts as Lord and Savior; though they rejected his words, they have rejected Jesus Christ who gave his words from our Father; and they rejected our Father himself;  for, it is a chain of command from heaven to follow by believers; therefore, we are not to be offended when we are rejected by evil men in our callings; for, it is our Father who was rejected, and there are repercussions for rebellious and disobedient children on judgment day;  on this earth, disobedient children gets reproves and punishments from their fathers; therefore, when souls disobey their heavenly Father and creator, can we imagine what will happen to those souls?;  this a point to ponder for today!

CONCLUSION:

Dearly beloved, when we minister to save souls into the last boast of salvation, but our good works are viewed by unbelievers as sour grapes, let us not feel offended but after we must have tried our best to win them over but to no avail, let us move on to other unbelievers who are willing to receive the gospel, let us not give up on them entirely as hopeless people, but in our prayers, remember to pray for them, that their spiritual eyes may be enlighten to come to Jesus Christ and accept him into their hearts as Lord and Savior before it is too late and they end up in hell's damnation;  today, if we have not yet receive Jesus Christ into our hearts as Lord and Savior, let us reach out to someone, who can lead us unto him; there are so many men and women of faith all over planet earth, waiting to lead souls to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, the last boat of salvation, grace and life forever and evermore.  Amen and Amen!
