How do you Know Pt.2

Pastor Troy Smotherman teaches how believers can know God is real and know they are saved: by their walk with God, by what they love, and by their identity as adopted children of God. Using 1 John 3, he explains that being born of God doesn’t mean never sinning, but no longer living in habitual lawlessness, because the Holy Spirit brings conviction rather than condemnation. He warns that Satan attacks identity through deception and cultural confusion, and emphasizes that truth and love expose darkness and confirm discipleship. He highlights love for others as evidence of passing from death to life, and that the Spirit bears witness that we are God’s children.
