Summary: Show the world what you have don't just talk it.
SHOW EVIDENCES OF KNOWING GOD.
1ST John 2: 3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
1. Keeping his Commandments.
1ST John 2: 3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
2. By walking Godly as Jesus did.
6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
3. By loving the brethren.
9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
4. By having sins forgiven.
12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
5. Knowing Jesus and overcoming Satan.
13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.
6. By the Word abiding in you.
14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
7. By doing the will of God not the world.
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
8. Let Christ abide in you.
24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
9. Remain in Christ.
27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
