SUNDA Y MORNING (August 26th) • "That You May Know"Love in Deed and in Truth (1 John 3:11-24)"For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning ..." (3:11) In what way?Why does God care so much about our loving one another?What should Christians remember about and learn from Cain (3:12)?Why shouldn't Christians be surprised when the world "hates" us (3:13)?In what way have we "passed out of death into life" (3:14a)?____ ~oever:does not lo~e _abides in c!eath'_~(3:14b).wtI is this the only other alternative? _How could John possibly be justified in asserting that "everyone who hates his brother is amurderer" (3:15)?How does Jesus' sacrifice define the very essence of "love" (3:16)?Can you provide some examples of ways that disciples might sometimes "love in word or talk" butnot "in deed and in truth" (3:18)?What should we make of 3:19-22?"And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us" (3:24). What doesthis mean?
