1 John 5: God Hears Us

Last updated on: November 25, 2011 at 9:42 am By Dillon Burroughs

1 John 4: Love Comes from God

Last updated on: November 24, 2011 at 6:37 am By Dillon Burroughs

“7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.

1 John 3: What Love Is

Last updated on: November 23, 2011 at 6:32 am By Dillon Burroughs

“16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” -1 John 3:16-18...

Last updated on: November 22, 2011 at 6:27 am By Dillon Burroughs

“9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. 10 Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble. 11 But anyone who hates a brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them.” -1 John 2:9-11 John was... Read more

“8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” -2 Peter 3:8-9 Even within the lifetimes of the apostles, people began to doubt Christ’s promise to return.

“…the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.” -2 Peter 2:9 Patience is a struggle. Why? We can only see “now.” Yet God’s eyesight is timeless. He knows the beginning and the end as well as our current situation. This knowledge is intended to encourage us during times of trouble. As Peter notes, God knows how to rescue his people from trouble; God also knows how... Read more
