Those whom I Love, I Reprove.

3:19 Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline. Both vv. 18 , 20 indicate that Christ was speaking here to unbelievers. God certainly loves the unconverted (cf. Jn 3:16 ). And “reprove” and “discipline” often refer to God’s convicting and punishing the unregenerate ( Mt 18:17 ; 1Co 14:24 ; 2Ti 2:25 ). † 3:20 I stand at the door and knock. Rather than allowing for the common interpretation of Christ’s knocking on a person’s heart, the context demands that Christ was seeking to enter this church that bore His name but lacked a single true believer. This poignant letter was His knocking. If one member would recognize his spiritual bankruptcy and respond in saving faith, He would enter the church.

Jesus laid down his life that we, the sheep, might live. Will you follow the Good Shepherd, today, that you might live. He stands waiting. If you made this choice today, tell someone you know that can walk with you, in a local Christian church, that believes in discipleship. God Bless.

Talk about finding our identity. We are instruments of God, to be covered in all of these things. As believers, this is our legacy we leave behind, and will carry into all of eternity. Never in our own strength, but through the one, who transforms us, one day at a time. May your joy be made complete, today, and every day in Jesus.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful to forgive us our sins, and to cleanses us from all unrighteousness. This is not a one time thing. It is ongoing in, not only asking God to forgive us, but also forgiving others. How beautiful a picture of Love. It sounds easy enough, but in reality, it is not always easy for me. Father, forgive me when I am holding on to something, I need to let go of.

Living and walking go hand in hand. It doesn’t mean we won’t sin, but it does mean, that we a walking toward the Hope we have in Faith, that one day, we will be made perfect, because of the one who was perfect. Thank you, Jesus.

The words that come out of our mouths, reflect what is in our hearts. God has given us a most powerful tool for good and not evil. It is a tremendous responsibility. We have the opportunity to point people towards the gates of heaven, or the treeible reality, that we may have directed someone toward an eternity in hell. Father, forgive us when we do not speak your good news.
