This sermon presents 2 John as a brief but weighty call to build church life on the non-negotiable foundation of truth—the inspired, inerrant word of God centered on the true Christ—and to express that truth through obedient, sacrificial love for God and one another. It warns against Gnostic and “instead-of-Christ” teachers who deny Jesus’ full deity and real incarnation, urges believers to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered, and commands them to refuse partnership or hospitality to those who bring a different doctrine so that they do not share in their evil works.
