1 John 3

1 JohnSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg explores the theme of righteousness and what it means to be a child of God in 1 John 3. He emphasizes the importance of imitating God as children imitate their parents, growing to be like Him but not necessarily perfect replicas. Gregg also touches on the idea of corporate growth, with the whole body of Christ becoming mature. He stresses the significance of walking in love as a proof of being a child of God, rather than externalistic or ritualistic practices.
