    It is our love for one another that lets our light shine unto the world and boldly states we are Christians! In 1 John 3:11-18 John states if one is indifferent or hates a brother or sister then either one is not saved or is out of fellowship with God.

    Behold, what manner of love The Father hath bestowed upon us, Whole volumes might be written about this without exhausting the extraordinary subject contained in them, namely, the love of God to (for) man.

     | 7,653 views

    I believe we are living in the last days because every day since Jesus ascended into Heaven after His resurrection is one of the last days – we just don’t know how many days, months or years there will be till He returns.

    Proper preparation for the second coming of Christ For a few weeks, God has kept leading me back to a specific passage in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5 which I believe He wants me to share with you today. Let me give you a brief introduction to put the verses we are going to look at in context. 1 ...read more

    The life of grace is the start and first standard in the heart of a Believer. Those who have disdain in their hearts for their brother must be deprived of love.

    The life of grace is the start and first standard in the heart of a Believer. Those who have disdain in their hearts for their brother must be deprived of love. Jesus taught that hate is the same as murder. The life of Jesus, eternal life, cannot abide in us if we hate others. Do we detest any of ...read more

    We must love others. We are to love in deed and in truth and not just in word.

    1 John 3:11-24 depicts the differentiation among love and hate, and how love should be found in the existence of every Christian believer. Evil has an envious scorn for goodness. For this reason, Cain killed Abel, and it is why hatred is viewed as murder’s spiritual identical. Christians are relied ...read more

    I love Jesus’ parables. Sometimes they’re like exploding birthday cakes. Sometimes they’re like a mirror. Sometimes they’re like an onion. And sometimes, like Jesus’ parable of “The Good Samaritan,” they can be all three.

    This passage centers around one basic truth for people that believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. People that believe in God and in Jesus Christ are considered to be “children of God.” Focus on purity as God's children.

    John tells us that a true child of God seeks to be gracious and generous.

    The theme of this portion of 1 John is love. But instead of portraying the need for believers to love one another in a positive light, John speaks to us about loving one another by emphasizing the negative. In these verses, he tells us what a lack of love will lead to. 1. Murder - vs. ...read more

    Love That Doesn't Fail Series

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Jun 26, 2014
     | 6,237 views

    This is why Jesus made a sacrifice for you and me. Because he really loves us. A love that doesn't fail is a love that sacrifices. The world has no idea what this real love is, because the world is selfish.

    According to John those who say they love God show it by obeying the Word of God. There were those who were false teachers during John's day who claimed that they were apostles, too, just like John. There were others who claimed that Jesus wasn't really human, he didn't really suffer and die as a ...read more
