How to Know if You’re a Christian?
1. Theologically – is Jesus your God?2. Morally – do you hate sin?3. Socially – do you love other people?

We know that we have come to know Him if we obey His commands. The man who says, “I know Him,” but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys His word, God’s love is truly made complete in
him. This is how we know we are in Him: Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.
1 John 2:3-6
![Page 6: Notes Regarding 1 st John](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681634d550346895dd3e7f8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning. This old
command is the message you have heard. Yet I am writing you a new command; it’s truth is seen in Him and you, because the
darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.
1 John 2:7-8
![Page 7: Notes Regarding 1 st John](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062323/5681634d550346895dd3e7f8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness. Whoever loves his brother lives in the light,
and there is nothing in him to make him stumble. But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the
darkness has blinded him.
1 John 2:9-11

The false teachers were saying…
• The spirit is eternal• The body is temporal• Since the body is temporary, everything you do with or in
your body is irrelevant, because it will one day pass away.

The Big Idea
1. Jesus is the only way you can move from a life of darkness to a life in the light.
2. Once you claim Jesus, your life should show it through your love and service for others.

Three Questions
1. Who do I look to as my model?2. How well am I mirroring Christ to those mirroring me?3. How can I love and serve somebody today?
