1 John 5:14-21

Listen to 1 John 5:14-21
14 There is one thing we can be sure of when we come to God in prayer. If we ask anything in keeping with what he wants, he hears us.
15 If we know that God hears what we ask for, we know that we have it.
16 Suppose you see your brother or sister commit a sin. But that sin is not the kind that leads to death. Then you should pray for them. And God will give life to them. I'm talking about someone whose sin does not lead to death. But there is a sin that does lead to death. I'm not saying that you should pray about that.
17 Every wrong thing we do is sin. But there are sins that do not lead to death.
18 We know that those who are children of God do not keep on sinning. The Son of God keeps them safe. The evil one can't harm them.
19 We know that we are children of God. We know that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.
20 We also know that the Son of God has come. He has given us understanding. Now we can know the One who is true. And we belong to the One who is true. We also belong to his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the true God. He is eternal life.
21 Dear children, keep away from statues of gods.

That Your Joy May be Full Part 12b
That Your Joy May be Full Part 12b
James Kaddis

“Little children, keep yourselves from idols!”  That may seem like a strange way to end the epistle of First John.  But when you stop to think of how prevalent and destructive idolatry is, it makes perfect sense!  Today on Light on the Hill we aim to complete our series, “That Your Joy May be Full.”  And pastor James Kaddis will urge us to put Jesus first in our lives, letting go of anything that is getting in the way of that.
