Thanks to Jonathan Leeman over at 9Marks for posting this outstanding meditation! He writes… Here’s an article in the upcoming March/April eJournal that no one should miss–Andy Johnson’s meditation on 3 John 8. At one point, Andy writes,
“John knows that one of the most reliable indicators of our love for Jesus is the degree to which we will work for the advancement of his truth when there is nothing directly in it for us. Our love for the gospel is most clear when we delight to see it prosper—and to help it prosper—when other people will be viewed as the human agents of its success.”
Imagine if every church leader in the world demonstrated this kind of humility and love for the gospel! May the Lord grant us all more humility and love.
