NOTE: To receive these Sermon notes below in an outline form (which is easier to read), please email your request to Pastor Marcus Johnson (efcamarcus@sbcglobal.net). REVIEW & INTRODUCTION: (1) John’s Purpose for writing: (1Jn 1:3-4; 5:13) --> Christ-Centered Fellowship & Joy; --> Assurance of Eternal Life. (2) “The Message” in 1st John (1Jn 1:5-7 & 1Jn 3:11; 4:8) --> God is Light: so Walk in the Light; --> Love one Another: for God is Love. (3) Fellowship with God defined (1Jn 1:1 – 2:6) --> Revealed & Experienced thru Jesus Christ (& His Church); --> Walking in the Light with Jesus Christ our Advocate (Not living in/controlled by sin - yet still acknowledging our sin); --> Keeping God’s Commandments (as God’s love is perfected in us and by Walking as Jesus did). SUMMARY OF 1st JOHN: God transforms our lives by revealing Himself to us thru the person of Jesus Christ. This transforming-revelation is received by faith in Christ and thru obedience to His word, and it leads to (and is experienced within) the Christ-centered fellowship of the church. Within this fellowship we experience His joy & love; we walk in victory over sin, the world, and the devil; and we are assured of our eternal life, as we look forward to His second coming and our abiding with the Father forever. ABIDING FOREVER IN GOD’S LIGHT – (1) By Knowing God’s Word (vs7-8): --> God’s Word is Ancient yet New; --> God’s Word is Fully Revealed in Jesus Christ. (2) By Loving One Another (vs9-11): --> Hating one another is Living in Darkness; --> Loving one another is Abiding in God’s Light. ABIDING FOREVER IN THE FATHER’S LOVE – (1) By Knowing who we are in Christ and Living Victoriously (vs12-14): (2) By Doing the Will of God not Loving the Sinfulness of the World (vs15-17).
