People of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 3:11-24Näide

John keeps bringing us back to what distinguishes a person of light and life from darkness and death. Remember that his whole letter is predicated on certain people claiming to be spiritual who in fact have wandered away from the Jesus basics. They are claiming new revelations that put their attitudes and actions at odds with the way of Jesus himself. Here John reminds us to cling to Jesus’s message from the beginning. People of light and life love like Jesus, even if they’re hated by the world. They believe in Jesus as the Christ and God’s son, and they obey him. People of darkness and death don’t.
