The Word “Test” literally means to examine or prove. It’s literally this idea “to weigh.” We’re going to test it and know it to be true.

Did you know it’s all of our responsibility to know the Gospel is being preached? Not just the preacher.

We have to PROVE it and know our faith has some real reasons behind it. The Bible teaches us it’s our job to test it. To weigh it out.

Here’s why this is important. This world is inhabited by The Evil One. The Evil One is the Father of lies. That’s what Jesus says about the Evil One.

Listen, people will do things out of their own selfish desires and they don’t even know it some times. You do, too! But we have the Word of God that we can take time in, and we can listen to people talk about Jesus. We can actually go to the Bible App and look at what Jesus said. And then we can say, “I’m not sure that’s quite right, what you’re saying, Preacher.”

Foundationally, go to the Bible and open it up! And John is trying to establish with us that he’s about to tell us is true! You can believe it! You can base your life on it!
