1 | Can we select who gets our hospitality? | 2 John 1:10 | Searcher56 | 11677 | ||
Are we not suppose to practice hospitality? How far to we carry this? -What if the difference is teaching is minor, like denominational differences withing the envagelitical community? Does it mean that one may not invite Mormons, or other groups who just knocked at the door? Does it mean that it was wrong to say "hi" to that person? What about showing the love of Christ? -Are we faling to do so when we don't invite them in? Steve |

2 | Can we select who gets our hospitality? | 2 John 1:10 | Makarios | 11693 | ||
Hospitality to whom and for what reason? We should show the love of Christ to all people! Now some people you are happy to see, and some others, well, you just try to do the best you can! :) But we should show love to all people, regardless of their creed. Should we invite Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons into our homes? If we do, then we SHOULD NOT give them a "platform" or chance where they can freely communicate their false teachings without the revelation of the truth in God's Word. If we can test and see what they say in relation to God's Word and show them where they are wrong (or correct), then I believe that we have acted in the best loving way that we can. "10 take him into your house. A reference to the housing and feeding of traveling teachers. The instruction does not prohibit greeting or even inviting a person into one's home for conversation. John was warning against providing food and shelter, since this would be an investment in the "wicked work" of false teachers and would give public approval." (NIV Study Bible) --Nolan |
