1 John 4:1-6 || Ep. 914 - Test the spirits

(There may be a silent section in the audio. Fast-forward or hang in there and the message will resume.) Our passage in 1 John is a perfect example of what we want to do to better study the Bible - and that's what this podcast is all about - Dwelling in the Word and letting the Word dwell in us richly is different than reading the Bible or reading a devotional with Bible passages. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly and return the favor by dwelling in the Word - not "doing" Bible study, not simply reading - but moving into the Word with heart, soul, mind, and strength. It's being intentional in making a shift from treating the Word of God like a self-help book to letting it dwell in us as the living Word of God that it is.
