2 John 10-11 "If anyone comes to your meeting and does not teach the truth about Christ, don't invite that person into your home or give any kind of encouragement. Anyone who encourages such people becomes a partner in their evil work."
Lord, I thank You that You showed me this verse years ago. I lived about 15 miles from the Mormon's Hill Camora in Palmyra NY,where Joseph Smith said he was visited by the angel Moroni and they have a huge pagent every summer. So every year we were inundated with young eager missionaries trying to earn ther way to heaven by fulfilling their year as a missionary. We also had very eager Jehovah's Witness missionaries who canvased our area every year. Even before I was a Christ Follower, they made me uncomfortable and at times, I would pretend that I was not home so I did not have to deal with them. I didn't want to be rude, but I didn't want what they were peddling. I didn't know the You didn't want me to have anything to do with them either.
After I was saved, I asked my Pastor about it. He told me to read 2 John. I did and then forever after that, if one came to the door, I would not answer or if they were persistant, I would answer and tell them that I was a Christ Follower and I would pray that they found the real Christ and close the door.
ThankYou Lord for the clarity or Your instruction. You never leave me wondering what to do or how to live.
