Anyone Who Does Good Is From God

11 Feb

3 John 1:11 – 11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.

So now becomes; what is good?

Luke 18:19 – 19 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone.

God is good!  Jesus is good as He is God in the flesh.

So we need to do what God and Jesus want to be good.  Not good works that a man considers good, but what God thinks is good.

On the other hand, he who does evil has not seen God.

Let’s focus on God and what he wants.  After all when we’re dead here and standing in front of Him that is all that’s going to matter.

I know that I sound like a broken record at times, but it’s amazing how much of the New Testament is about the redundant things I keep writing about.  I believe as humans we try to ignore the obvious, so the obvious gets mentioned a hundred times throughout the New Testament.
