    How many of you have ever had a spotlight shined directly on you? Was it a comfortable experience?

    Why did John write the letter of 1 John?

    It's become very popular in our day for people to describe themselves as "spiritual." What this usually means is they're open to anything and everything.

    Truth matters. Truth in belief and truth in behaviour. It matters what we believe about Jesus. It matters how we live

    John is a passionate writer. Maybe he realises that he’s coming to the end of his life and he doesn’t have much time left to get his message across. Maybe he looks around at the church and realises that the inexorable drift from the gospel to religion is impacting on those he’s ...read more

    Do your actions, your faithfulness show you are a part of God's program or does it show that you are outside of it looking on? For you is worshiping the Lord a matter of service to others and obeying Him. This is what honors Him and gives us our purpose.

    Opening Illustration: This line between truth and falsehood is blurred in our society. We pick up newspapers and read touching stories and later find out that the stories were complete fabrications. We are used to politicians making us promises to get our votes, only to forget those promises once ...read more
