Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Aug 7, 2021

The intensity of John’s writing increases as he attempts to call the church back to the non-negotiables of the Gospel. In this message attention is drawn to several things: the historicity of Jesus demonstrates God’s redemptive plan and calls for a response.

As John draws this short letter to a close, I am amazed by the manner in which his intensity builds. He increasingly, uses the phrase, we know. His task has been to call the church back to foundational things. The effectiveness of this series of sermons is based on our response to a very ...read more

Human pride and self-centeredness are roadblocks we set up with help from the enemy of our souls to deafen and blind ourselves to ...read more
