Life Manifest: Counting the Truth of the Gospel

Apr 7, 2024  •  The Rev. Billy Cerveny

Life appears three times in the opening verses of 1 John, and that word launches a new series on the letter. Tracing the theme back to the breath of God in Genesis and the spiritual death that followed the Fall, Rev. Cerveny presents Jesus as the second Adam who brings new life. Like a bank teller who learns counterfeits by handling real bills, believers spot lies about earning God's approval by knowing the gospel well.
