1 John 3:1-3. "Who Are We Because of God?"

Trying to find your identity in the world may be tough sometimes. An element to this may be trying to understand "Who Are We Because of God?". In 1 John 3 verses 1-3, we find the answer: We Are The Children of God. As children of God, a Christian's hope is understood by living in this reality. We do so while clinging onto God’s promise. This is why by God's grace that is all loving, Jesus calls us brothers and sisters without shame! (Hebrews 2 verse 11) When Christ  appears, we will be like him, and live with him in a renewed world where sin and death passes away.  We do so while clinging to God’s promise. Once again, our status as his children is not predicated on our righteous actions, but on his grace. This episode goes into depth to bring out that: we are who we are because he is who he is.

This Sunday sermon, based on 1 John 3 verses 1-3, was preached at Grace of God Lutheran on November 5,2023. Scripture selections come from the New International Version.
