#11 I sure am glad that I’m a Son even if I stray!

God is greater than our heart even if our heart condemns us. Verse 20 This encourages me to trust God to save me based on His promises, not my doubtful nature.

Have you ever bumped into a complete stranger, but after discovering you both are Christians, the “ strangerness” just dissappears? I remember some folks tried to witness to me in the Harbor Freight parking lot as I looked into my wallet to find a “listen now” ttb card to share with them!  It was cool…

Whenever I get discouraged by my inability to be “sinless” I think of Paul . .or David.   Do you understand these verses to say you are not of God if you ever sin? . . .or that you can reach a place of sinless perfection in this body?

1John 2:29 -3:6 1 John 3:4 KJV[4] Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. https://bible.com/bible/1/1jn.3.4.KJV “Committeth sin” can be understood as having a habit or life of sin.  If we have that habit of sinning we should really question our “sonship”.

I loved the illustration today of the “Mean roommate” in college, who he loved as a Christian but otherwise would have hated. What stood out for you today? TTB.ORG

     I sure would like to see my Love of God perfected. I remember as a child I had trouble with and felt guilty about not feeling a “rush of Love” when approaching  God.  At the same time, I’m a little confused about “new commandment” and “No new commandment,” and why the contrast? I am…

If we say that we have no sin: Apparently, saying we have no sin, is a deception with consequences of fellowship loss, the Truth is not in us,and making Him a Liar! What does that say about folks who claim to live in sinless perfection?

#3 I loved his answer of, the Holy Spirit speaking to us in His Word!
