    Everyone talks about true love. But the Apostle John tells us how we are supposed to love.

    In just two days, we celebrate a holiday centered around the concept of love. We’ve seen traces of it for weeks. Hearts, flowers, candy… My wife told me exactly what she wanted this year… she told me she wanted flowers…but not roses. Anyone can get roses, she said. She wanted tulips. And so I ...read more

    let us listen to the words and statements of those who literally “left” everything to follow the Lord. Let’s listen to what John had to say about following our Savior.

    Theme: Committed to Jesus (Pt.2) Text: 1 John 2 Introduction A. Last Sunday we learned what it means to be committed to follow Jesus. Three would-be disciples of Jesus failed to exhibit a kind of commitment that He required from those who would follow Him. One was actually not willing to pay the ...read more

    How do you know if you are a Christian? Can you? Is it possible? John says yes in his letter and gives three ways that we can know we are "living in the light." The first is the Moral Test.

    We are going to continue on in 1 John tonight. Just to recap, two weeks ago we focused on God being the one constant in our lives. His relationship with us is the only thing that will never fail and never let us down. Last week, we talked about sin and that it is a reality that we all have to deal ...read more

    If God is light, if God is perfect righteousness, then we’d better get real about our own righteousness.

    John is writing to his followers in the final years of his life. You get the feeling that he thinks he’s running out of time because there’s a certain urgency to the way he writes. He doesn’t waste words. There’s no polite greeting at the start of the letter. He just gets ...read more
