From today’s reading...
But anyone who does keep his word, in such a one God's love truly reaches its perfection. This is the proof that we are in God.” 1 John 2:5
So many well-meaning but misinformed Christians love telling me, “You can’t work your way to heaven. I’ve accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior, so I am good to go. I’m saved. Done. End of story.”
Hmmm.
Okay.
Maybe you’re right, and 1 John 2 is wrong. I mean, you have the internet now…and MSNBC…and Reddit…and TikTok.
So you’re probably much smarter, wiser, and holier than John could ever dream of being.
So please accept my apologies.
You are perfect as you are.
No need to change.
But since I’m stubborn and ignorant and silly, I’ll keep doing all I can to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
Market like you mean it. Now go sell something.
