Week 13

1 John 3:4-10

https://youtu.be/nJ48WkGlHkc


This week we look again at the evidence distinguishing between believers and non-believers. John says that the distinction is obvious by looking at the pattern of behavior in the person’s life. Yes, we all face temptation and we all sin, but how we respond to temptation and how we react when confronted with sin makes a huge difference. Believers resist temptation and confess their sin and repent, whereas non-believers excuse and justify sin ignoring God’s clear standards. Today, we want to talk about “why?”.

The assignment: 1.) Look through this passage of scripture and see if you can find anything that seems to indicate the motivation behind the behavior that John says makes it obvious if we are believers or not. If a believer is one who avoids sin and confesses it, why do they do that?

2.) Search for other passages that may give other insight into the motivation of a believer to be obedient.

3.) Share your own experience with your motivation regarding sin and temptation? Are there times when you are more successful? What helps you stay motivated to flee from temptation?
