Confident because we know God

Speaker: Al Pickering

Date:

Some people are naturally confident. Others lack confidence or are over-confident. As we come to the end of John's letter, how can we have a right confidence from God that we really know him as Christians and what difference should that confidence make to our lives?

Knowing because you have faith in Jesus

Speaker: Al Pickering

Date:

So far in John's letter, the importance of faith in Jesus has come up a lot. But what does it mean to have faith in Jesus, what difference does it make to us and what if it just doesn't make sense to us?

Knowing because God Loves

Speaker: Jack Griffiths

Date:

God loves us. But do you know that? What if you don't feel loved by God, maybe because life is difficult? How can you be reassured of God's love for you?

Knowing because you have the Spirit

Speaker: Al Pickering

Date:

If someone claims to be teaching about God, or on behalf of God, how do we know if we should trust them? What about if they are very familiar to us or seem very spiritual? What is the mark of someone speaking by the Spirit of God?

Christian Assurance

Speaker: Steve Brading

Date:

Knowing because we obey

Speaker: Al Pickering

Date:

Does it matter how I behave as a Christian? What does my attitude towards sin and obeying God say about my faith? How can it reassure me that I really know God, even though I'm far from perfect?

Knowing because we know the truth

Speaker: Al Pickering

Date:

It's not usual to hear of people leaving churches, giving up on their faith and even changing their views on Jesus. It can unnerve Christians to see other people doing a U-turn in their faith. Should we follow them? Who's to say who's right?

Knowing because of Jesus

Speaker: Jeff Fletcher

Date:

How certain are you that you know God? We can have doubts because of the claims of other people and our own performance. However, John shows us why Jesus is the foundation of our confidence in knowing God.
