WEEKEND MESSAGE: The writer of 1 John 2 exhorts readers not to “love the world or the things in the world” (v. 15). What is
the meaning of this passage for Chris ans at the turn of the first century, and what does it mean for us today? How does Christ
abide in us so that we live in the light rather than walking in darkness? As we con nue our explora on of First John, we’ll consider
how we might connect our Chris an beliefs with our daily prac ces of life.
Good and gracious God, we want to be your people of the light in a world of darkness. Help us discern how you would have us live
in a way that witnesses to your love, mercy, and grace, as shown in the life and death of your son, Jesus. Amen.
