People of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 3:1-10Sample
We are not children of God by virtue of being human. Jesus doesn’t talk that way. He says some are children of God while others are children of the devil. None of us are natural born children of God. God has only one Son, Jesus (John 3:16). But God wants to adopt us! That’s what he sets out to do. To take those of us who are of the world, and who belong to the world and the prince of this world, and adopt us as part of his family. To be brothers and sisters of Jesus. That’s how much the Father loves us. He wants to call us his kids.
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.
