    Blinded By Darkness

    Contributed by Mike Reed on Jul 4, 2014
     | 9,410 views

    We commonly associate temporary blindness with bright light, such as looking directly into the sun. It seems strange, then, to read a scripture which tells us that we can be blinded by the darkness! Darkness makes the eyes more alert, more receptive.

    “BLINDED BY DARKNESS” Rev. Mike Reed, Winter Haven, Florida March 2014 1 John 2:9-11 1 John 2:14 Psalm 112:4 Proverbs 4:18-20 John 8:12 Luke 11:34-35 Psalm 18:28 1 Peter 2:9-10 1 John 2:9-11, 14 (New Living Translation) 9 If anyone claims, “I am living in the light,” but ...read more

     | 5,214 views

    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

    1 John seems to reveal a generation gap for the first time in Christian experience. How do we handle this? John’s message is helpful here.

    (The audio version of this is longer and more complete) How do we pass on the truth to the next generation? How keep from losing our children to the world? Every generation has a choice to make. The gospel and letters of John may have been written to address this very subject. John writes to ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,084 views

    This sermon looks at: What is salvation? and examines the fruit of salvation in our lives from attitude, actions and affection to Jesus. It ends by asking people if they personally have salvation. It contains references from the Koran, BBC, psychology jou
