| The Epistle of Light and Love – Part 7

The Epistle Of Light And Love – 1 John 1

Join us as we begin our new series in the epistle of 1 John.  There were two main concerns that John addressed.  The first was heretical teaching and the second was ethics or the proper conduct of the believer.  This series will be verse-by-verse teaching that will allow us to mine out the truths given to us by the Holy Spirit in this book.  We will see that these truths are still relevant and necessary today.  As we learn and apply God’s truth we will be empowered even greater to enjoy fellowship with the Father and with His son Jesus Christ.

Part 7 –  Christians sin.  We were born again by faith and there was an instant change in our spirits, but this change did not take place in our soul or our body.  1 John 1:8-10 are written to believers to empower us to live in continual fellowship with God.  The grace of God purchased our salvation completely, this is not a reason to live in sin, but it does provide payment for the sins committed after salvation.  The grace of God also empowered us to live sanctified in this life through spiritual maturity.  The believer who matures in Christ should show greater and greater levels of the fruits of righteousness as they walk through this life.
