Obedience- The Mark of Love: 1 John 4.20-5.13


This is the love of God, that we keep His commandments.
And His commandments are not burdensome. 1 John 5.3

The law of God is designed...

  • For our protection.

  • To give us limits.

  • To facilitate our growth.

  • To grant us freedom.

Jesus came by water- birth, baptism (v. 6)

Jesus came by blood- sacrifice, death

Bearing witness in heaven ( v. 7)- Father, Word, Spirit

Bearing witness on earth (v. 8)- Spirit, water, word

Life comes from God.

Take Away Point-

I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” John 10.10
