Pastor Paul outlines the Apostle John's reluctance to conclude his letter, emphasizing his desire to reiterate critical truths about Christian faith, particularly the characteristics of genuine believers. Paul discussed three main tests to ascertain one's faith: belief in Jesus Christ, joyful obedience to God's commands, and victory over worldly challenges through faith. Faith is not simply saying what God says is true; true faith is acting on what God says, because it is true.
