3 John 1:11 … To Be with God (08/20/16)
“Whoever Does Good is in harmony with God;
whoever does evil has yet to comprehend God.”
~ unknown (3 John 1:11)
This is a verse that is almost as popular as it is misunderstood … For starters, take care to note that — just like the broad penumbra of Jesus’ fully unconditional LOVE — the focus here is on action as opposed to mere intellectual belief. Next, note as well that those doing good are not judged worthy by God, but rather are considered to be “with God”, and that those who do not choose to do good are not condemned by God, but rather simply do not yet “comprehend God”.
As such, the deeper meaning of this passage advises that to truly Know God, we must first act as if we are God, whereupon we will realize in so doing that we have indeed been a living facet of the Grand Divine all along.
Amen … Let it be so.
