When you read the scripture that says, “No one who abides in Him sins”... doesn’t it make you cringe a little inside?
After all, it seems like it’s saying that Christians don’t sin—which doesn’t make sense with what we know is true about ourselves (and with what the Bible says elsewhere)!
So what IS John saying here... and what is your relationship with sin as a Christian?
Join David, Adam, Corina, and Christina as they do a deep dive into 1 John 3:1-10.
You’ll discover...
- How a practice of sin sets apart the children of God from the children of the devil
- How thinking about who you are as a child of God helps you know how to respond when you do sin
- How you can practice righteousness as a Christian while guarding against a self-righteous attitude
Dive into what Scripture says about sin, and be in awe of the One who rescues you from sin and makes you a child of God.
