1 JOHN 3: 1-10“A Compelling Love” Pt. 1

Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my

Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father;

neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will

reveal him.

Joh 5:22 For the Father judgeth no

man, but hath committed all

judgment unto the Son:

Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave

he power to become the sons of God, even to them that

believe on his name: Joh 1:13 Which were born,

not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of

man, but of God

•A Warning against false teaching or false doctrine. •There were those trying to

strip Jesus Christ of His humanity.

•John states there were some that fellowshipped among us,

but were not “of us.”

•Because The Spirit of the Living God taking residence in the believers, there

is discernment as to “who is who” among the church.

•Beware of those that will not only try to steal your confidence in Christ,

•There are those that try and seduce you with all types of ideas and distractions away from the true Christ and the true

Church.

I. BE Aware of the Abundant Love of The

Father

1Jn 3:1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called

the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

1Jn 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him

as he is.

1Jn 3:3 And every man that hath this

hope in him purifieth himself, even as he

is pure.

1Co_2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear

heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the

things which God hath prepared for them that love

him.

1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at

the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised

incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put

on immortality.

1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal

shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass

the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in

victory.

1. There is hope that Christ will appear

2. That we will see Him. 3. That we will become

“like Him”

II.BE Aware That Christ Lifted Sin Away

1Jn 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin

transgresseth also the law: for sin is the

transgression of the law.

1Jn 3:5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and

in him is no sin.

1Jn 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not:

whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.

1 JOHN 3:1-10“A Compelling Love” Pt. II

III. BE Aware of the One That Destroyed

The Works of The Devil

1Jn 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as

he is righteous

1Jn 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the

devil; for the devil sinneth from the

beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works

of the devil.
