1 John - Abide & Grow - Audio
from Center Point Assembly Hosted by Pastor Mike Way
Sunday, March 9, 2025 – The title of today’s study on 1 John 2:12-24 is “Abide & Grow.” Here’s a question to consider as we begin: “What is the overall theme of Scripture?” There are various answers, but today's study highlights “Spiritual Growth” as one of the key themes. Physical growth and spiritual growth have much in common. It’s clear from Scripture that God wants His children to grow into spiritually mature men and women capable of overcoming the enemy. God does not want anyone to remain a “spiritual baby” longer than necessary. Physically, we cannot alter our growth process; we have no choice – we are going to grow old. However, our spiritual growth is entirely about choice. We can choose whether and how quickly we are going to grow spiritually. Does this make sense? God is a finisher – meaning that He doesn’t start with the intention of not finishing, and neither should we. Our spiritual growth depends on the energy and effort we invest in it. We grow by abiding in Christ and remaining connected to the vine, as described in John 15. Worship and study with us as we abide and grow in Christ.
