About this episode
This episode explores living as a child of God through the lens of 1 John, discussing key theological concepts and the evidence of a transformed life.
In this episode, we continue through 1 John and explore what it truly means to live as a child of God. Scripture makes it clear that our identity is not something we earn, it is something we receive through the finished work of Jesus. We unpack the difference between justification, sanctification, and glorification, and why so many people confuse them. While salvation is a one-time act, growth is an ongoing process, and obedience becomes evidence of a transformed life. This message also challenges us with a clear test. If we claim to walk in the light, it should show up in how we live and especially in how we forgive others.
