People of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 2:3-17

DAY 2 OF 5

“Obey” is not a word many people like. It sounds harsh and authoritarian. It rarely conjures ideas of friendship or love. But Jesus and John know obedience flows from love. We do what someone wants because we love them. It’s the same with God. In fact, John says we know we’ve come to know God if we keep God’s commands (1 John 2:3). Where might your self-perceived love of God be getting ahead of your obedience to God today?

About this Plan

People of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 2:3-17

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.
