2 John
I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete. 2 John 1:12
Teaching about holy living is not widely accepted, and specific teachings can quickly challenge full harmony within the broader society. This is why separatist communities have always arisen in every generation.
Reading John’s second letter closely makes it very clear that his exhortation to walk in righteousness does not include any specifics, only the clear exhortation to keep JESUS’ commands to walk in love and truth and righteousness.
Beyond this John clearly says he does not want to write any more specifically and looks forward to giving any further details in person.
Let us devote ourselves to understanding and living out in every area the commandments and teachings of JESUS to live and walk in love, truth and righteousness.
