Lesson 8: Reasons to Be Encouraged (1 John 2:12-14)

Related Media
John’s letter was for the whole church. He wanted to make sure his recipients knew that whether they were younger or older, parents or children, men or women, all could be encouraged in the truth that God was at work among them; He was near and knowable as their Father. Though John’s words were very direct regarding how far away people were who didn’t pass the truth, obedience or love “tests,” he also knew that his audience was mostly made up of those who had truly given their allegiance to Jesus Christ. And so, with this in mind, Pastor Daniel emphasizes the point, “God’s children find joy, assurance, and motivation as they see God work in their lives.”
