Lesson 27: Why You Should Believe that Jesus is the Son of God, Part 2 (1 John 5:10-12)
Related MediaIn this second look at 1 John 5:10-12, Pastor Daniel continues to relay the great importance of a person deciding what they will do with the revelation about Jesus. He states, “Your entire life—present and future—is shaped by how you respond to the testimony of God concerning Jesus Christ.” With a look at two “characters,” Christian and Doubter, he illustrates the two journeys people can be on as they consider who Jesus is. Christian believes with an ongoing faith that affects all of his life into eternity. Doubter does not believe in Christ and makes God out to be a liar, and the negative consequences of this doubt are just as consequential as that of Christian. There is a call in this passage to escape death and judgment through faith in the One the Father has sent to be the Savior of the world.
