First John chapter 2 starting in verse 3. We know that we have come to know Him if we obey His commands. "The man who says, 'I know him,' but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him." But if anyone obeys his word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him.
Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. As I was thinking about 1 John, and of course as we've talked about 1 John extensively for the last few weeks, John's purpose is to kind of straighten out some faulty doctrine that was happening in the New Testament church, and the problem was Gnosticism, as we've talked about that. And I've spent some time over the last few weeks explaining what Gnosticism is.
Enjoy the rest of the message.
Blessings,
