Sermon Title: A Note of Encouragement
Passage: 1 John 2:12-14
Preacher: Ashley Herr
To the Church (v12,13c)
You are born of God
You belong to God
You are loved by God
To the Seasoned Veterans (v13a,14a)
My encouragement for you: THANK YOU!
My prayer for you: continue pursuing Jesus and finish well
To the Newcomers (v13b,14b)
You feel victorious - because you’ve overcome the evil one
You feel strong - because the word of God abides in you
We are people of the Word, formed by Scripture
We are people of prayer, led by the Spirit
Sermon Footnotes
“All Christians, mature and immature, have come to know (egnōkate) God. But their knowledge of him ripens with the years.” - John Stott (The Letters of John: An Introduction and Commentary, p101)
“I am sometimes asked…whether at my age I have any ambitions left. I always reply: “Yes, my overriding ambition is (and, I trust, will be until I die) that I may become a little bit more like Christ.” - John Stott (The Contemporary Christian, p146 - quote taken from A Fellowship of Differents, p204 by Scot McKnight)
