I am guessing most of us feel comfortable walking in the dark in our own home. We know where things are, we trust our senses. But take that same level of dark in surroundings not so familiar, and you pull the toes in a little, put the hands out. We’re not as comfortable or confident so we are much more careful. John has been warning us of the darkness. It seems that he is concerned that we are too confident and not careful. Our passage today reaches a pinnacle in the warning. Let’s read 1 John 2:18-27.

We know worrying accomplishes nothing, and yet . . . And it is not just that it profits us nothing. It puts us in a deficit. There are a significant number of serious health issues directly related to worry, and then there are the spiritual health issues.
A Step Measure of Truth

As we continue our series today in 1 John, we find ourselves in chapter 5 where John reviews one of the most basic ideas of Christianity. It is the idea in which our faith is anchored and the idea we share with the world: Jesus is the Son of God. Today we are looking at something a lot of us don’t probably feel like we need proved, but what we always need is our faith encouraged and emboldened; and readied to share, explain, defend.
The Confidence of Evidence
June 27, 2021 • Dr. Randall T. Hahn
You can know you have eternal life. The only way that is possible is if it is based on something other than me. If it based on my performance, my goodness, my resume it feels to me like there would always be reason to doubt. I am, we are inconsistent. We have bad days. But my faith is not in me, and the reason it is not in me is because God told me not to put it in me, but in Jesus.
