A short, personal letter, but a good set of ideas nonetheless. Let's wrap up the letters of John!

Second John: kind of a summary of First John, really. Good to go through regardless, as we're wrapping up the trilogy.

Here's the resolution of the book, and it's the same as the rest: work towards God, and do so faithfully.

A brief interruption on the merits of love to talk about making sure that an individual is one of faith. What is the Spirit? How do we know it's working with us? Is there any way we can actually measure these things?

Love your brethren. Why? Because God loved you, of course!
