And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.”‭‭1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬Our Future…“Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”‭‭1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬Our Fruit…“No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God.”‭‭1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭ESV‬‬Conclusion: Who determines our nature and our eternal destiny? ★ Support this podcast ★
