Motivation: Knowing Where you Live “Passed from Death to Life” Motivation: Knowing Where you Live “Passed from Death to Life” 3:14-18

(Jonah preaching from 1 John.) "Michael turn in your Bible to 1 John. Jesus is the light, he is not dark at all"

We know “We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brothers.” We know And we need reminding

We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands - 2:3 And this is how we experience a daily, continuous and growing knowledge that we actually have come to know him and still know him. We treasure, value and hold in the highest esteem his commands (which leads to obedience)

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. - 2:5,6 But those who continually treasure and guard and hold on to his word, his instructions, his perfect law; in those people God’s love meets its goal and purpose: that of attaining maturity and completeness in Him. Now this is how we know that we are in an abiding, living relationship with him: Whoever says, “I’m at home in Christ” must place their full dependency on him all throughout the journey of their life. But those who continually treasure and guard and hold on to his word, his instructions, his perfect law; in those people God’s love meets its goal and purpose: that of attaining maturity and completeness in Him. Now this is how we know that we are in an abiding, living relationship with him: Whoever says, “I’m at home in Christ” must place their full dependency on him all throughout the journey of their life.

The Realm you came from The Realm you came from the Realm you are in the Realm you are in THE LIFE THE DEATH

The importance of changing your dwelling place THE DEATH THE LIFE “Good” people “because of his great love and his rich mercy he made us alive with Christ.” There is no one righteous, not even one Romans 3:10 There is no one righteous, not even one Romans 3:10

Evidence of Life: LOVE This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. 3:16

Hate your brother (like Cain) and you are a manslayer. You know you can’t go about ‘killing’ others while at the same time having eternal life in you.

This is how we came to experience and understand God-love: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us! Thus we, in turn, ought to lay aside our lives for one another. This is how we came to experience and understand God-love: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us! Thus we, in turn, ought to lay aside our lives for one another.

If there are those among us that possess the world’s goods and observes, “There is a brother or sister in need”, yet if he closes the door of his heart and shuts him out how is it possible to say “I have God-love in me?” If there are those among us that possess the world’s goods and observes, “There is a brother or sister in need”, yet if he closes the door of his heart and shuts him out how is it possible to say “I have God-love in me?”

Dear, dear ones! Let’s not let God-love be simply words and theological concepts. God-love acts and it’s the reality of our lives! Dear, dear ones! Let’s not let God-love be simply words and theological concepts. God-love acts and it’s the reality of our lives!
