People of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 3:1-10Sample
It’s one thing to be adopted by God. It’s another to become like him. God adopts us the moment we’re born again. But becoming like him takes time. John seems to imply that we don’t fully know what that’s like just yet. Because we haven’t fully seen God just yet. But Jesus will come, and when he does, he won’t just say we’re part of the family. He’ll make us like him! So right now all who have that hope lean forward towards that goal. Because when you love God and love his son, there’s no greater joy than to be like him!

About this Plan
Near the end of his life, John, the last living apostle, wrote a Gospel. And it seems some people were distorting it. John writes to believers caught in the aftermath, bringing clarity and commentary on what he wrote. He shows them what it looks like to be people of light and life instead of people of death and darkness. This plan takes us through 1 John and how to live in the face of distorted Christianity.
