1 John (Introduction)
1 JohnSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg provides an introduction to the book of 1 John in this talk. He discusses the reasons for believing that John the Apostle is the author and the presence of false teachers in the churches. John is concerned with false prophets in the world and offers guidance on how to discern true teachings. He also presents four features of genuine Christianity: belief in Jesus as the Word made flesh, keeping the commandments, love for one another, and living in the Spirit.
