Lesson 6 - Loving One Another

October 8, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Chris Terrian • 1 John 3:10–24

How does John’s teaching on love compare to John 13:34-35? In what ways is Christ’s love a new example for us? In one sense, the Lord’s command in John 13:34–35 was very old (Leviticus 19:18; Romans 13:10). But in another sense, it was new. Love had never before been manifested as it was by Christ—culminating in His sacrificial death for those He loved. “This is My commandment,” He declared, “that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:12–13; Luke 19:10; Galatians 2:20; Revelation 1:5). The Lord Jesus Christ is the perfect model of the love God has always commanded.

Lesson 4 - True Fellowship (Part 1)

September 25, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Ben Baker • 1 John 2:12–27

In this lesson, we will explore 1 John 2:12-27, where the apostle John provides valuable insights into the Christian Walk. He addresses believers at different stages of spiritual maturity, reminding us of the growth that comes through our relationship with God. John then warns us about the dangers of loving the world and being led astray by false teachings, urging us to remain faithful to the truth passed down from the apostles. As we delve into this passage, we will learn how to stay anchored in our faith, reject the world's temptations, and experience a deeper fellowship with God. Let's open our hearts and minds to John's lessons to live authentically as followers of Christ in a world that often opposes Him.

Lesson 3 - Life in the Light (Part 2)

September 18, 2024 • Matthew Allen, Eric Renegar • 1 John 2:1–11

In this lesson, we will explore what it truly means to live in fellowship with God and our fellow believers. Building on the foundation laid in the previous lesson, the focus shifts from acknowledging our sins to forsaking them as part of our daily walk in the light of Christ. John emphasizes the vital role Jesus plays as our advocate, continually interceding on our behalf, ensuring that we remain in the right standing with God.
