1 John begins with the core focus that the more we know Jesus, the more we will reflect his grace and forgiveness to others. Our faith in Jesus will naturally draw us to become aware of our own flaws and his holiness and perfection. Considering God’s perfection, and our lack thereof, we move to a place of humility, grace, and love for others. The people of God should be known by humility, love, and grace.
Today we will examine adoption, and see how Jesus can be called God’s only son, and yet we are also his children.
God’s people find themselves trapped in a season they did not choose and waiting for deliverance that has not yet arrived. Yet even in the silence and suffering, God is quietly preserving life and forming courage in ordinary women who refuse to surrender to fear.
God renews our minds through the hope of salvation and equips us with His living and active Word. As we close the series, we’ll explore how what we believe shapes how we think, and how Scripture works in us and through us in everyday life. Rooted in Him, we are both formed by His truth and sent out to live it.
