Ep 188 – 1 John 2:3-11 PT 6

Anyone who has ever spent any time in the dark knows that stumbling comes with the territory. The inability to see clearly makes it almost impossible for us to walk safely and confidently. And in this, the sixth episode on 1 John 2, verses 3-11, we are going to hear what John has to say about the consequences of living in the dark. I've entitled this episode, "No Cause for Stumbling" because John is going to tell us that we should have no excuse if we stumble and fall or if we cause another to do the same. We are children of the light. We have the light of Christ living within us and the light of God's Word available to us. So, seeing clearly and walking confidently should not be a problem for us. Unless of course, we choose to ignore the light. Darkness is nothing more than an absence of light. And when we refuse to spend time in the Word, deepening our relationship with God and growing in our knowledge of Jesus Christ, we end up stumbling around in the dark. And like the blind leading the blind, our lifestyle influences all those around us.
