We Know (1 John): Lesson 6

1 John 2:7-11 | Knowing Christ = Loving Neighbor | Deep in the Bible No. 36

In this episode of the Deep in the Bible podcast, host Timothy Agee continues the "We Know" series on I John. Diving into First John 2:7-11, this episode shifts focus from our vertical relationship with God to our horizontal relationship with our fellow man. Timothy explores how John refutes early Gnostic false teachings by examining the commandment to love our neighbor—explaining how this foundational truth is both an "old commandment" from the Law of Moses and a "new commandment" reframed through the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ. Learn how to identify the marks of truly walking in the light versus remaining in spiritual darkness, and discover why genuine fellowship with God must actively transform how we treat others.
