(Lesson 5005) (10-14-25) 1st John 3:1-6
“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.”
Today’s quote says that God’s love is so great that He calls us His children, even though the world cannot understand that. When Christ returns, those of us who believe in Him will be like Him because we’ll see Him as He truly is. Those of us who put our trust in Jesus strive to live pure lives, leaning always on the righteousness of Jesus Christ for the salvation of our eternal souls. Anyone who keeps living in sin doesn’t really know Him. In simple terms: Because of God’s love, our faith in Jesus makes us His children, and real faith in Jesus changes how we live, we won’t keep living in sin if we truly belong to God. ~
