1 JOHANNES 5:11

The Good News of Jesus! What makes the gospel such good news? This 4-day plan takes you to the heart of it — the love, death, and resurrection of Jesus and what it means for your life. You'll discover why Jesus went to the cross, how His resurrection changes everything, and how you can have complete confidence in eternal life. Whether you're exploring faith for the first time or want a fresh reminder of what Jesus has done, this plan is for you. Share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Is salvation a gift received by faith alone? Or, is it received by faith plus works, or in tandem with an emotional experience, or in some other way? Free grace proclaims that salvation is not earned. It is the free gift of God, the uncompromised and unrestricted favor of God toward sinners. Scriptures teach us that eternal life comes through the simple act of believing in Jesus Christ, God’s Son.

In this plan we will undertake a study of the book of 1 John, in the New Testament. The book of 1 John is the first of three books, written by John the elder to house church believers. The book of 1 John encourages believers to remember that God is light and love and therefore to live lives that reflect that light and love with one another and the world.

The following reading plan will take you deeper into the three concepts of Spirit, Soul, and Body at a steady pace, building on the message of Jesus' finished work. It will stretch, challenge, and grow you as his follower. Make sure to allow the Holy Spirit space to work in you and to shape you. See the impact for yourself. This is the last of four plans.
