The Gospel: How We Know
We will be looking in 1 John this morning, and put somewhat of a bookend on where we started.
We looked at with Jesus saying, “Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord’ did we not prophecy in your name and in your name perform many miracles and drive out demons, and I will tell them I never knew you.
Away from me, you evildoers.”
The picture here is he’s talking about here is unbelievers.
People thought they were believers, but they were not true believers.
We need to know the gospel.
It’s the lifeblood of who we are.
We’re going to take a birds-eye view of 1 John
The Contrast…
The Contrast…
Superficial faith is always possible.
Saving faith always perseveres.
The Confidence…
Assurance of eternal salvation is a reality.
When saved, always saved.
False Foundations of Assurance…
A moral lifestyle.
Intellectual knowledge.
Religious involvement.
Active ministry.
A guilty conscience.
Positive thinking.
A past decision.
True Foundations of Assurance…
The present truth of Christ in your life.
Am I believing in Christ alone for my salvation?
Am I abiding in Christ alone as my salvation?
The present work of Christ in your life.
Am I obeying what Christ says?
Not holy perfection.
Instead, holy direction.
Am I loving like Christ loves?
The present Spirit of Christ in your life.
Do I listen to the Spirit of God in His Word?
Am I led by the Spirit of God in my walk?
Beware of spiritual deception.
Be warned concerning spiritual inaction.
Be working and waiting with spiritual anticipation…
By His grace, He will bring you to eternal life.
