Series: 1 John: That You May Know
Preacher: Pastor Brad Hillman
Summary
On whose authority can we base our faith? This message explores 1 John 5:6-12, establishing that God is the ultimate source of authority. Pastor Brad explains that we can have full assurance in our salvation because God Himself has testified that Jesus Christ is His Son—the true object of our faith. This divine testimony is confirmed through the water (Jesus' baptism), the blood (His death on the cross), and the Spirit (who indwells believers). The sermon challenges us to stop questioning God’s good authority and align every area of our lives—our thoughts, desires, and actions—with the truth that eternal life is found in the Son alone.
