1 John 1-5 | Fall Preview & 1 John Overview

Pastor Gerrit introduces the book of First John, written by the apostle John to give believers real assurance that they have eternal life in Jesus. Before reading the letter aloud in one sitting, Gerrit walks through why John wrote it: to warn against false teachers, call Christians to love one another, and remove doubt about where they stand with God. The letter keeps returning to a few simple truths that build on each other: God is light, God is love, and anyone who believes Jesus is the Son of God can have real confidence rather than guessing about their salvation.
