Witnesses of Sonship
In 1 John 5, the Apostle John gives us witnesses of Christ, the Son of God, both in earth and in Heaven. In today’s broadcast, we defend the authenticity of these passages and also present an exposition of John’s arguments.

Whosoever Believeth
Whosoever believeth is born of God. Those were the words of the Apostle John in 1 John 5:1, and his purpose is to exhort us to love children of God as we love our Heavenly Father. In this broadcast, we consider this most fundamental truth: Regeneration precedes faith. Those who believe in Christ so believe because they have been raised from death in sin, to new life in Jesus Christ.

Some More Thoughts on Love
Continuing our study of John’s exhortation to love our brethren in 1 John 4, we come to one point of argument that John makes concerning love. How can a man say he loves God, though he has never seen God, when at the same time he hates other people, whom he has seen?

God is Love
Returning to the theme of brotherly love, the Apostle John writes to the origin of love as a personal attribute, in 1 John chapter 4. God is love, so when God takes up residence in a person’s heart, the character trait of love becomes a part of their personality.

Influences
John warns us in 1 John 4, that many influences in the world are rather evil. In this broadcast, we consider his warning to “try the spirits,” because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Confidence Toward God
When we follow Christ by faith, we experience assurance of our salvation. Or, as John refers to it in 1 John 3, “confidence toward God.” But what if our hearts condemn us? God is greater than our heart! Join us for this message from 1 John chapter 3.

Loving the Brethren
One of the most common instructions we find in the New Testament is to love our brothers and sisters in Christ. In fact, by this, all men know we are the disciples of Jesus (Jn 13:35). In 1 John 3, the Apostle John exhorts believers not to be as the unregenerate, full of hate, but rather to love one another.
