1 John 4: Agape First and Last

There is a quality to agape that is unlike the other loves, for it comes from a place of fullness, a place of depth and peace, it is an overflowing kind of love that does not need a response to exist.

1 John 4: We Have the Mind of Christ

1 John 3: You Know the Truth

John 11: Jesus Develops Martha’s Faith

I read a book a while ago called, Where Is God When Bad Things Happen? Written by Luis Palau. As you can imagine from the title, the author talks about the traumas and tragedies that you and I experience in life, and why God seems to allow them. Where was God? What was God doing? What is God doing? That’s what Martha and Mary were wondering in this story, and probably Jesus’s disciples, too.

1 John 2: Spirit of AntiChrist

For John, Christianity was empowered by the Holy Spirit. The antichrist was the other spiritual movement, fueled essentially by a supernatural force that was in opposition to God.

1 John 2: Those Who Leave

John claimed proof of salvation lay in Living by faith in holding onto the teaching of the apostles. Those who left had never been of them in the first place.
