    Staying Clam In A Storm Of Heresy Series

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Jul 29, 2021
     | 2,494 views

    A major concern for John is heresy within the church and the manner it is causing problems and robbing believers of their joy. John uses antichrist in reference to those who perhaps start with seemingly sincere faith; yet, their teaching becomes contrary to Christ and abiding in him.

    There is a universal theme that runs through the book of 1 John, abiding in Christ. This is the key to “living in the world but not of the world. When we refuse to live in the world, we fail to serve Christ. Joe McKeever wrote the following. In the 1987 meeting of the Southern Baptist ...read more

    Through Jesus Parables we will be given “knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven” not the kingdom of this earth. The knowledge that will be imparted to us will come from the Lamb of God Himself.
