The Believer and Sin (2 of 5)
Series: Rest Assured
Josh Malone
1 John 1:5-10, 3:4-10
Last week we began a new series called ''Rest Assured: Being Certain of Your Salvation.'' - The book of 1 John was written so believers can have confidence they we know?God. - In fact as you journey through the book of 1 John believers find assurance they really know God and are saved, at the same time those that may profess to know God and be saved but who aren't ... may be convicted and convinced of their need to be made new, born-again, through authentic faith in Christ.
Last week we talked about how believers are those that have a relationship with Christ through faith.

We continue in a posture of repentance and faith in Christ alone our whole lives. - We believe in a moment in time but continue to believe the rest of our lives.
Now, when you study 1 John you see John also gives some marks of life change, some evidences that show our faith is real. - Many people claim to know God but don't. Only those that know Christ do, and authentic faith is Christ produces life change. 2 Cor. 5:17- Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
1 John highlights some of those changes that take place because we are a new creation. --- Our relationship with sin, with God's Word, people in particular believers, and the world system we live in... are all different. - Today we are going to see how the believer relates to sin, how it is different than the unbeliever.
1 Jn. 1:5-10- 5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with ...
