Summary
Today, to first John the fourth chapter for our study, first John chapter four. In order to study how we can bless others by loving them, I'd like to study this morning from first John the fourth chapter. And in this section here of first John in the fourth chapter, John is dealing with an understanding of the manifestation of God's love for us. Turn back with me, please, to the very first chapter of first John, and we'll pick up in verse 5. Because even though the Lord brings people to faith through word and through sacrament, brings them to faith that old Adam, that old Eve, that sinner in us, claims and doesn't go away until the Lord takes us to be with him in heaven. Beloved by God's grace, be that person, be that person this week, that when that person leads from that interaction with you, they might not be able to verbalize it, but they'll know, they'll know something good just happened.
