Faith’s Victory

1 John 5:1-5

I.  BORN AGAIN – BELIEVING JESUS IS THE CHRIST (v. 1; Hebrews 11:1-3; John 3:3).

II.  BORN AGAIN – LOVING CHRIST AND LOVING OTHERS (v. 1).

III.  BORN AGAIN – LOVING GOD KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS (vv. 2-3).

IV.  BORN AGAIN – OVERCOMES THE FLESH AND EVIL (v. 4; Romans 7:14-25; Philippians 4:13).

V.  BORN AGAIN – FAITH’S VICTORY THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS THE SON OF GOD (v. 5).

This is the greatest reason for Thanksgiving.
