The apostles also taught the importance of love
Love and Rebuke in the Apostles' Teaching The apostles also taught the importance of love and that love requires obedience. 1 John 3:14-18 - Some people call John the "apostle of love," because he showed our need to love like Jesus loved. [4:7-5:2] 1 John 5:3 - But John taught that this is the love of God, that we keep his commands. [2 John 6] The apostles also plainly rebuked people who rebelled against the truth they taught from God. Acts 8:20-23 - Peter plainly rebuked a member of the church (Simon) for trying to purchase a power that he had no right to have. 2 John 9-11 - The apostle of love said anyone who would not abide in Jesus' teaching (which the apostles delivered), did not have God. [2 Peter 2:1-22; 1 John 2:18-22; 4:6; James 2:10; Revelation 22:18,19] |
