Truth unites us all who believe the gospel of grace alone by faith alone in Christ alone.
Interesting how this epistle is written to the “elect lady” and her children.
So grateful for this Scripture verses you have shared.

Be strong in the Lord.
True, Crissy, GOD’s Truth, the Gospel truth that stands firm unites us. Yes, it is GOD’s divine providence and will that John the Apostle (and one of the elders) wrote his second epistle not just to a woman but also a lady and an elect. Both the BibleGateway and GotQuestions.org refers to her as a person while Crosswalk.com refers to her as a local church. We are grateful to GOD for these Truths! Blessings to you and your family!
Grateful to GOD for showing us these verses of samples of persons addressed as His elect, Jim. GOD’s election and the salvation that follows were evident in the life of these women. BibleGateway describes her further. Not just JESUS and Paul who refers to the elect but also John and Peter (tomorrow’s scripture), with John, in these verses, saw these women (with certainty) as elect. Blessings to you and your family!

The keyboard with printer of yesteryear. Grateful to GOD for the availability of the typewriter picture when it is hard to find a scroll.
