1) The document discusses the amazing love that God has shown us by calling us his children and sending his son Jesus to die for our sins, even while we were still sinners, demonstrating his love for us.
2) It describes how we will be made like Jesus and transformed into his image when he returns, and that by beholding his glory we are changed from glory to glory.
3) It explains that all who have hope in Jesus purify themselves to be as pure as he is, and that those born of God do not practice sin but live righteous lives in obedience to God.

Acts Chapter 3, Beautiful Gate, authority, the name of Jesus, Solomon’s Colonnade, repent and return, metanoeo and epistrepho, restitution of all things, all the prophets said Christ would suffer, a prophet like me
Do you not know: we are baptized into Jesus' death, you are a slave of sin or righteousness, as Christians we are dead to the law, the spirit of God dwells in you, a little sin spreads through the whole body, saints will judge the world, the unrighteous will not be in heaven, those who preach the gospel deserve payment, we should run the christian race to win, Christ in in you, friendship with the world is enmity with God.
Galatians 3, Seed, Children Of is To Be Like; Are Christians Spiritual Jews, ...Valley Bible Fellowship
Galatians Chapter 3, Abraham’s Simple Faith Credited As Righteousness; Seed Not Seeds; All Nations Are Blessed by Abraham; The Law Was A Tutor To Lead Us To Christ; “sons of God”= Direct Creations Of God; Equal and One in Christ; Are Christians Spiritual Jews?; hanged on a tree; redemption salvation, redeemed, The Redeemer
Do you look like your parents? For me, some may say I really look like my dad. He just smiles more often and I don’t. Hehe. It’s just amazing to see how a child can really resemble his or her father or mother. We have a resemblance to our earthly parents no matter who big or small it may be. But we should also consider our resemblance to our heavenly Father. We will learn a lot about this as we study 1 John chapter 3.
A simple and powerful message on the name of Jesus. Expect miracles!

Another book containing the Words of Our LORD Jesus to the church. It has prophecies regarding the rapture of the church, how to prepare for that great visitation and the tribulation and judgements that will be after the church of Christ is taken away
Warning Signs are put up for a reason. A simple look at this passage may challenge what you believe. If your belief doesn't line up with God's word then change your belief.

I John 2:28-3:3 Tests for Christians. Do you abide in Christ? Do you practice righteousness? Who knows you? Are you a child of God? Are you pure, just as He is pure? What is your identity?
The Significance of Being A Christian - Belonging To The LordRick Peterson
Belonging To The Lord is the second in a series of lessons on, "The Significance of Being A Christian." I found the outlines for this series of lessons at: http://executableoutlines.com/sig.htm
I John 4:1-6 tests for christians 3 - the test of false teaching. Bluffing your way. Do you confess the Son? Do you listen to the Son? Do you obey the Son? Do you pass the test?
When we appropriate all that Christ has done for us, we have a responsibility to Him, our fellow members of the body of Christ as well as ourselves. Keeping the faith is an ongoing process.

John 13:34-35; Listen without interrupting; speak without accusing; Give without sparing; Pray without ceasing; Answer without arguing; share without pretending; enjoy with out complaint; trust without wavering; forgive without punishing; Promise without forgetting.
The protestants of 1529 grounded their teachings on the fact that anything that didn't agree with scripture it was their task to reject it. This presentation looks at two contrasting views. One advanced by the Catholic church and the other view advance by Seventh-day Adventists. We then compare these views with scripture.

This is the greatest truth of the Bible that we MUST know in order to really know God, enjoy our life with Him as His child and be the person we want to be for others.
Here is a list of scriptures that I rely upon to know for certain that God loves me more than I could ever imagine or deserve!
Faith that saves is a working faith, we can't separate our faith from our works, there is a difference between works of the law and christian works, works are involved in our salvation, we will be judged by our works not our faith.
John 1:6-13. Knowing God.
I. SAYING WE KNOW GOD IS NOT ENOUGH
II. KNOWING GOD IS OBEYING GOD
III. KNOWING GOD DOES NOT COME THROUGH WORLDLY WISDOM
IV. KNOWING GOD REQUIRES LOVE

Genesis 47:13-15 Now there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished because of the famine. 14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house. 15 So when the money failed in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For the money has failed." There are a number of reasons that money fails.
I beseech you – beg, urge, encourage, appeal
By the mercies of God – compassion
Present your bodies a living sacrifice – as opposed to a sacrifice of death
Holy, Acceptable to God – pure, without spot or blemish
Your reasonable service – since Christ died for us we should live our lives for him. 2 Corinthians 5:15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.
John 3:16 is the most quoted and most remembered scripture from the bible.
Did you know that there are a number of other 3:16 verses that relate to and are very important to our spiritual lives and our living for Jesus?
Tonight we are going to look at some of those 3:16 scriptures.
Philippians 1:9-11 And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, 10 that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ, 11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
Fear is common to all. We all fear something. Some fear is God given. Children come into this world with a fear of heights and of loud noises. Some fears are there to protect us from physical harm: snakes, darkness, suffocation, being burned, death, etc. In christians, most fear is a tool of satan
Brotherly love has amazed many people throughout the centuries. Love of the brethren is commanded by God. Brotherly love mus be worked at to achieve. problems in the church are either directly or indirectly connected to lack of love for one another. love is the key to a growing or even a surviving church.
Jesus makes it very clear that we need to forgive others in order to be forgiven ourselves by God. Forgiveness is a key to having successful relationships. we will look at nine roadblocks to forgiveness from the book, "From Anger to Intimacy"
in Galatians chapter 3 Paul contrasts salvation under the Law of Moses with the salvation we have through Jesus. Galatians 3:22-29 is full of truths regarding our true position as sons of our loving Father. We will look at 8 things which our faith in Christ will cause us to become.
We are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works. We are blessed for doing God's work. We are to speak and do. Faith without works is dead. Faith is shown by our works.
Jonah is a book about god's desire to save the lost and man's role in that. there are some great lessons taught in the book of Jonah. We will look at questions Jonah was asked in the book and ask those questions of ourselves.
we all need motivation at times. what motivates you? Paul said 5 things to the brethren at Rome to motivate them to continue their service no matter how great the suffering became. the good always outweighs the bad. the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. God's providence works for us. Judgment is on our behalf. the love of God is on our behalf.
Repentance is a change in your allegiance, your expectations, your values, your priorities, your mission and your morals. can you say there has been a change in your life since you met the Lord?
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus would be called or known as wonderful. Wonderful in His birth. Wonderful in His miracles. Wonderful in His teachings. Wonderful in His resistance to sin. Wonderful in His accomplishing His work. Wonderful in His fulfilling prophecies. Wonderful in His sacrifice. Wonderful in His resurrection. Wonderful is His Name.
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus would be called or known as Mighty God. Prophecies said he would be God. John said He was Creator and God. Jesus claimed to be God. Thomas said He was God. Paul said He was Creator. Paul called Him God. John said Jesus was the True God.
Isaiah 9:6-7 His name will be called or He would be known as counselor. He is a counselor who understands your struggles. He is a counselor who cares for you. He is a counselor who is committed to you.
Ephesians 3:14-21 How big is your God? The ability of my God is boundless. The ability of my God goes beyond my prayers. The ability of my God is beyond my ability to imagine. The ability of my God is manifested in the lives of His people. The ability of my God is seen through His glorious church. The ability of my God is eternal.
The resurrection of jesus is a prevarication (spoken against), a plethora (great number) of witnesses, a proven fact, a purpose to save us. a plea to live worthy, a pattern for us to follow, a power from God, a promise for us, to believe in, a pledge by our savior.
Isaiah 9:6-7 Jesus would be called or know as the Prince of Peace. He brings peace through salvation. He brings peace through the Spirit. He brings peace through the scriptures. He brings peace through service. He brings peace through our following His guidance. He brings peace through being in Him. He brings peace through our being spiritually minded. He brings peace through answering our prayers. He brings peace through His blood. He brings peace through our pursuit of peace. He brings peace through Knowledge. He brings peace through our being peacemakers.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

2. 1 John 3:1-3 Behold what manner of love
the Father has bestowed on us, that we
should be called children of God!
Therefore the world does not know us,
because it did not know Him. {2} Beloved,
now we are children of God; and it has not
yet been revealed what we shall be, but
we know that when He is revealed, we
shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as
He is. {3} And everyone who has this hope
in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
3. AMAZING
A. Behold! Look! Take notice!
B. Something amazing.
C. What is John going to tell us that is so
amazing.
4. I. AMAZING LOVE - Vs. 1 -
Behold what manner of
love the Father has
bestowed on us, that we
should be called children of
God! Therefore the world
does not know us, because
it did not know Him.
5. I. AMAZING LOVE - Vs. 1
A. GOD GAVE HIS SON - (1 John 4:9-11) In this the love of
God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His
only begotten Son into the world, that we might live
through Him. {10} In this is love, not that we loved God,
but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the
propitiation for our sins. {11} Beloved, if God so loved us,
we also ought to love one another.
B. WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS - (Rom 5:6-9) For when
we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for
the ungodly. {7} For scarcely for a righteous man will one
die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even
dare to die. {8} But God demonstrates His own love
toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died
for us. {9} Much more then, having now been justified by
His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.
6. I. AMAZING LOVE - Vs. 1
C. GOD IS FOR US - (Rom 8:31-39) What then shall we say to these
things? If God is for us, who can be against us? {32} He who did
not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall
He not with Him also freely give us all things? {33} Who shall
bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. {34}
Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore
is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also
makes intercession for us. {35} Who shall separate us from the
love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or
famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? {36} As it is written:
"For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as
sheep for the slaughter." {37} Yet in all these things we are more
than conquerors through Him who loved us. {38} For I am
persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor
principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,
{39} nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be
able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus
our Lord.
7. II. AMAZING LIKENESS - Vs.
2 - Beloved, now we are
children of God; and it has
not yet been revealed what
we shall be, but we know
that when He is revealed,
we shall be like Him, for we
shall see Him as He is.
8. II. AMAZING LIKENESS - Vs. 2
A. 2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face,
beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being
transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just
as by the Spirit of the Lord.
B. Colossians 3:9-10 Do not lie to one another, since you
have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put
on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according
to the image of Him who created him,
C. Ephesians 4:22-24 that you put off, concerning your
former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt
according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the
spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man
which was created according to God, in true
righteousness and holiness.
9. III. AMAZING LIVING -
Vs. 3 - And everyone
who has this hope in
Him purifies himself,
just as He is pure.
10. III. AMAZING LIVING - Vs. 3
A. 1 John 3:4-9 Whoever commits sin also commits
lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness. 5 And you know
that He was manifested to take away our sins, and
in Him there is no sin. 6 Whoever abides in Him
does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him
nor known Him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive
you. He who practices righteousness is righteous,
just as He is righteous. 8 He who sins is of the devil,
for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this
purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He
might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Whoever
has been born of God does not sin, for His seed
remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has
been born of God.
11. III. AMAZING LIVING - Vs. 3
B. 1 Peter 1:14-19 as obedient children, not conforming
yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 15
but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all
your conduct, 16 because it is written, "Be holy, for I
am holy." 17 And if you call on the Father, who without
partiality judges according to each one's work, conduct
yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in
fear; 18 knowing that you were not redeemed with
corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless
conduct received by tradition from your fathers, 19 but
with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without
blemish and without spot.
C. 2 Corinthians 7:1 Therefore, having these promises,
beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of
the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of
God.
12. IS YOUR LIFE AMAZING?
A. Are experiencing God’s amazing love?
B. Are you being transformed into His amazing
image?
C. Are you living the amazing sin free life?
