Intro:
AG: I have a question for you this morning.
What is a Christian?
A mind through which Christ Thinks.
A voice through which Christ Speaks.
A Hand through which Christ Helps.
A Heart through which Christ Loves.
TS: John has been detailing evidence that we are God’s children.
He has pointed our love for God is demonstrated by how we live and treat each others,
The two should be so closely tied that it leaves little doubt.
RS:
5:1–5 Real Christianity is evidenced by (1) right belief (vv. 1, 5), (2) obedience to God (vv.
2–3), and (3) love (vv.
1–3).
Right Belief
Doctrine matters.
Doctrine- what we believe and what we teach matters.
We believe that the Bible is the only guide for our beliefs and practices.
Off all subjects in the Bible, Jesus is the most important.
Who He is and what He did and what He continues to do.
Look verse one with me and watch.
> What do you believe today?
How does it control you?
everyone who believes Jesus is the Messiah.
Messiah is the Anointed One.
God’s promised deliverer
Saving faith leads to love for the Father and His children
Now connect the dots; verse one gives this message
1 jn 5:1, 5
verse 5 asks
Now John points out that Jesus was just the Messiah, HE was GOD!
God the son, took on flesh for us, lived a sinless life and died to pay for our sins.
He victoriously rose again and went back to heaven where he is preparing a home for us and interceding with the Father.
, “Who is the one who conquers the world, but the one who believes that Jesus is…”
It is only in the experience of trusting Christ that we can become real live conquerors, real successes, and real winners.
Because here is the truth; if we truly believe in Jesus the entirety of our lives will be changed, redirected, TRANSFORMED.
What do you believe today?

Obedience to God
Obedience to God’s commandments.
There are several estimates of the number of commands.
Much of it has to do with interpretation and if you count the duplicates individually or all as one.
Guess what?
It is far more than 10!

In the Bible we find God’s will for our lives revealed.
The unsaved considers the Bible an impossible book, mainly because they does not understand its spiritual message ().
An immature Christian considers the demands of the Bible to be burdensome.
He is somewhat like a little child who is learning to obey, and who asks, “Why do I have to do that?”
or “Wouldn’t it be better to do this?”
But a Christian who experiences God’s perfecting love finds himself enjoying the Word of God and truly loving it.
He does not read the Bible as a textbook, but as a love letter.

reveals the attitude we are discussing:
In all but 2 verses the Psalmist mentions the word of God.
He clearly loves it!
Notice a few:
“O how love I Thy Law!” (Ps.
119:97) He rejoices in the Law (Ps.
119:14, 162) and delights in it (Ps.
119:16, 24).
It is honey to his taste (Ps.
119:103).
In fact, he turns God’s Law into a song: “Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage” (Ps.
119:54).
NT: 1050
Ps 119:10
Ps 119:
Ps 119:
Our attitude toward the word, reveals our heart.
Obeying God should be a pleasure to us
We know what our loving Father expects and should delight in pleasing Him.
Love
A woman visited a newspaper editor’s office, hoping to sell him some poems she had written.
A woman visited a newspaper editor’s office, hoping to sell him some poems she had written.
“What are your poems about?” the editor asked.
“They’re about love!” gushed the poetess.
The editor settled back in his chair and said, “Well, read me a poem.
The world could certainly use a lot more love!”
The poem she read was filled with moons and Junes and other sticky sentiments, and it was more than the editor could take.
“I’m sorry,” he said, “but you just don’t know what love is all about!
It’s not moonlight and roses.
It’s sitting up all night at a sickbed, or working extra hours so the kids can have new shoes.
The world doesn’t need your brand of poetical love.
It needs some good old-fashioned practical love.”
D.L. Moody often said, “Every Bible should be bound in shoe leather.”
We show our love to God, not by empty words but by willing works.
We are not slaves obeying a master; we are children obeying a Father.
And our sin is a family affair.
