1 Johannes 3:23

Maybe God isn’t who you think He is. Maybe He’s much better. This devotional will help identify some Christian clichés we’ve all heard that are actually unbiblical lies. These clichés may seem innocent, but are harmful to our faith and keep far too many believers stuck in spiritual immaturity. Learn to encounter these lies is with the truths about God in the Bible, that bring encouragement and freedom to our lives.

The Bible commands us to care for the poor and oppressed. Come and explore the depth of God’s concern for them, and how you might answer the call yourself. Each day includes a real-life story or anecdote, Scripture and meditation, challenge, and prayer.

Daar is geen middeweg in hierdie eerste brief van Johannes nie - óf ons kies lig óf duisternis, waarheid tot leuens, liefde of haat; ons omhels die een of die ander, net soos ons die Here Jesus Christus óf glo óf verloën. Reis daagliks deur 1 Johannes terwyl jy na die oudiostudie luister en uitgesoekte verse uit God se woord lees.

In hierdie briewe het Johannes die diepe verband tussen liefde en gehoorsaamheid verduidelik. Johannes se aanmoediging vir alle gelowiges om mekaar lief te hê is vandag net so toepaslik as wat dit in die eerste eeu was. Hierdie studie ondersoek hoe die liefde van Christus ons nie net verander nie, maar ook die wêreld verander deur ons gehoorsaamheid aan sy opdragte.
