Making Liars of Ourselves
As we near the end of John’s first letter we might be shocked to hear what the apostle has to say to us. Let us encourage one another to hear God’s word and send it on.
Whoever does not believe God has made himself a liar by not believing the testimony God has given about his Son.
As we consider the testimony John gives to us we might be amazed to hear that God loves each of us. Let us encourage one another to enact God’s word and send it on.
And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in the Son.
As we begin to understand the breadth and depth and height of God’s love we might be humbled to realize that God comes among us as the human Christ to suffer as we suffer, to rejoice as we rejoice. Let us encourage one another to love God’s word and send it on.
Whoever possesses the Son has life; whoever dos not possess the Son of God does not have life.
As we begin to fully take in all that John has related to us we might be amazed to understand that God loves us always, even when our actions do not reflect our words. Let us encourage one another to speak truth by living authentically rather than making liars of ourselves with all the great and little actions in our lives.
Enter the word authenticity in to the blog search bar and consider how easy it is to cease making liars of ourselves.
