Day 406

Day 406

In 3 John 11

Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.

What does this means as stated in the bible written in 3 John 11? Therefore when we look into this verse, it says that, we should practice the good and not do what others do which is evil.

What is evil ? Lies, cheat, rob, kill . . . . what are lies, black lies, white lies, polka dotted lies. All lies. Cheat derived from lies, partial truth, half truths . . . Rob, you do not need to rob a bank to be a thief. You may rob some one's happiness, some one's smile, you make them unhappy out of your selfishness, YOU ROBBED. Kill, on the sermon on the mount of what Jesus had preached, to murder doesn't literally just killing someone physically. It may be through words. Through discouragements, though hurting someone with words, blemishing someone, saying lousy and hurting words as sharp as swords into hearts of people. This is murdering and killing.

In our lives, we have many or ample of such people around. May it be a christian or a non christian. It doesn't matter to me. I am not perfect, but each day, I am just trying my best to be better. I am not going to be bitter with the things I've face, I am going to be better.

But friends, do not judge, even the bible says, 3John11 . .  the one who does evil has not seen God. Which is why, do not judge those people who used to lie to you, to cheat on you, to hurt you, and betray you. We are not perfect, non believers, believers, as long as you are a human, we are not perfect.
