Live to Love Scripture Encouragement John 13.10

John 13:10 Jesus said to him, "He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you. " Let’s not miss what Jesus said. He told Peter that he and some of the others were completely clean. He didn’t understand that then, but we do. If anyone is in Christ, then they were perfected by their union with His perfectly clean life and the washing of regeneration. Paul wrote to Timothy about God “who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was granted us in Christ Jesus from all eternity,” (2 Timothy 1:9). From all eternity Peter and all but Judas of the disciples (and us who believe in Him) have been completely clean before God. This is great news! This is why we live to love with Jesus. He has cleansed us for this purpose. Acknowledgment: Music from “Carried by the Father” by Eric Terlizzi. www.ericterlizzi.com
