Assurance in Christ - 1 John 5:6-12

About this episode

The episode discusses the transition from the love of God to the assurance believers have in Christ as outlined in 1 John 5:6-12.

Today we continue our study verse by verse through the book of 1 John. As we draw close to the conclusion of this letter, we begin the transition from talking about the love of God to talking about the assurance we have in Christ. This is the ultimate expression of the love of God for mankind. The question remains: what are believers doing to share the true life found only in Christ? Scripture text is 1 John 5:6-12.
