Hey everyone I’m Pastor Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.
One of the greatest tragedies of life is the inability or the neglect of a father to pass on to his children the benefits of his experience.
Fathers must instruct, warn, and encourage their children.
For the next while Wednesday evenings messages will be from John’s first epistle and are titled “The Counsel of a Spiritual Father to His Children.”
Today we are discussing The Tests of Fellowship.
Introduction
As a preface to his instructions concerning irrefutable proof of one’s abiding fellowship with God in Christ, John exhorted believers to avoid sin and be conscious of satan’s ever present efforts to tempt and seduce the children of God.
But realising that the sinful nature is still present with us even though our souls are redeemed, John reminded his readers that all is not lost when we sin.
God has made provision, through the advocacy of Jesus, our great High Priest, who is seated at God’s right hand in heaven.
With that incomparable truth established, John proceeded to set forth two tests that will prove that a person has fellowship with God.
