First I want us to see three truths about you, from John’s first letter. Christianity NEVER says, DO this, and then you will BE this. Christianity says, you ARE this, because of what Christ has done. So then, by faith in Him, DO this.
So John, in a sort of poem in his letter, says three things about you, that are already true.
1.”You HAVE OVERCOME the evil one.”
2. “You know the Father.”
3. “You are strong . . . And the word of God abides in you.”
