John's Letters: Discipleship Lessons from First, Second, and Third John

by Ralph F. Wilson

First, Second, and Third John are like trail mix concentrated, chewy, and nutritious. The Apostle John writes these letters as an elderly man. When he was young, he was Jesus beloved disciple. Now he is passing on the faith he learned at Jesus feet. He writes with great affection, but that doesnt mean he is soft. In these letters John: Refutes enemies of Christ who are spreading false and dangerous doctrine. Challenges believers to reject darkness and live in the light. Assures believers of Gods forgiveness and cleansing. Proclaims love as the core commandment of our Lord Jesus Christ. Johns letters pack a punch to both first century believers and readers in the twenty-first century. Eight detailed lessons, each with probing discussion questions, can be used for personal enrichment, by small groups and classes, and by teachers and preachers.
