1 John 2:1-6 Sermon

Mar 16, 2025    Pastor Dan Allen

In this powerful message, we're invited to explore the profound metaphor of light in Scripture and its implications for our faith journey. Drawing from 1 John 1, we're reminded that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. This isn't just poetic language - it's a call to examine our own lives. Are we truly walking in the light as He is in the light? The passage challenges us to confront the concept of 'cheap grace' and instead embrace a faith that transforms us from the inside out. Just as light brings life, reveals truth, and exposes what's hidden, our relationship with God should illuminate every corner of our lives. We're encouraged to see our faith not just as a ticket to heaven, but as an invitation to be adopted into God's holy family, with all the responsibilities and privileges that entails. This message urges us to take our faith seriously, to confess our sins, and to actively pursue a life that reflects the light of Christ. It's a compelling reminder that true faith isn't just about believing, but about becoming - becoming more like Jesus with each step we take in the light.
