Pastor Adriaan continues his series The Corner of Light & Love.  John doesn’t want faithful Christ followers to think he sees them as stumbling in the darkness, so he digresses to affirm their faith, no matter where they are in their spiritual development.  At the same time, the Bible challenges us to live for God alone.

Pastor Adriaan continues his series The Corner of Light & Love. So what does God require of Me? Surely, this is one of the most important questions anyone can ask. Starting in verse 5, the apostle John helps us to grasp that what God demands of us is rooted in the essence of who He is.

Today, Pastor Adriaan begins a new series called The Corner of Light & Love. The apostle John’s greatest passion is that everyone in the church would experience the same life-changing presence of Jesus, that he has known. To that end, John begins his letter with an appeal to the reliability of the Gospel about Jesus.
