The Epistles Of John: A Study Guide For Life

What does a church do in the face of doctrinal errors? John wrote these epistles to bring the early church back to the centrality of Christ. To counter these teachings, he urges believers to walk in moral purity, to love one another and to live in constant harmony with the Spirit of God. In short, he told them how to live the Christian life when the culture of the world was heading in a different and wrong direction. These epistles are very timely, for we are living in the last days before Christ returns to earth and our culture is in free-fall away from godly ideals and Christian living. This Study Guide for LIFE will clarify what John wrote and drive truth home by means of a three-pronged approach: 1) explanatory notes offer insight into difficult or controversial passages; 2) searching questions about the text direct readers back to the text for answers; and 3) probing questions expand the context and challenge readers to apply the truths in this book to their own lives. By these means, the lessons of John's letters are discovered, explained and applied so that readers can be prepared and safely positioned with Jesus Christ in this culture which is increasingly given to deception and lawlessness.
