Ep. 133 Gnostic Heresies and 1 John

Have questions or comments about this (or a previous) episode, give us a text!The book of 1 John is often a book of the Bible that is used as a litmus test to tell if you, or others, are born again. However, when the text is compared with what the Gnostics believed and taught it becomes clear that 1 John is more of a manual to detect false teaching. Is it possible that the confusion of interpreting 1 John comes from the fact that we're asking questions it was never meant to answer?Until the end of the month of July you can support the ministry of InFaith by buying coffee!
