   May 31, 2013 · The Structure of 1 John: John does not structure his letter in a logical, closely reasoned style, as Paul often does. John is more intuitive, speaking as a bold witness. Many commentators say that it is impossible adequately to outline John’s argument. Others argue that it follows a spiral form, repeating themes for emphasis.

   Feb 15, 2021 · 1 John 4:1-3 - Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God. For many false prophets have gone out into the world.

   These 3 factors also reveal the key cycle of true spirituality in 1 John: a proper belief in Jesus produces obedience to His commands; obedience issues in love for God and fellow believers (e.g., 3:23, 24).

   Sep 29, 2019 · Mark #3: Rejection of the world. Do not love the world or the things of the world; if anyone loves the world; the love of the Father is not in him. A true Christian does not love the world nor the things of the world (1 John 2:16). Instead, he seeks to do God’s will and have eternal life (1 John 2:17).

   Jun 4, 2013 · Believers must be discerning in spiritual matters. Our text falls into three parts: John gives us the reason for discernment (4:1); the basis for discernment (4:2-3); and, the evidence of discernment (4:4-6). 1. The reason for discernment: Discernment is essential because Satan and his forces are at work in the world (4:1).

   What does John say about the Messianic Character of Jesus?

   • We should note the concern that John has with the Messianic character of Jesus. In 5:1, he has said that it is everyone who believes that Jesus is the Messiah (Christ) who is born of God, and in 5:6, he notes the importance of believing that Jesus is the Son of God. Such a believer is the one who overcomes the world.

   Why does John say the spirit bears witness of this truth?

   This is especially clear from 1 John 2.18-23, 26, 4.1-6, and 2 John 7. The proof case John gives is whether a person acknowledges that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who "came in the flesh," that is, that Jesus was sent from God into this world as a human being.
