Être enfant de Dieu 1 Jean 3.1a Jeff Laurin

Some sins are committed openly and some are masked behind a respectable facade. Neither one deserves forgiveness, but God’s lavish love and grace have nothing to do with deserving.

1 John 3:1-2a (NRSV) 1 See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God’s children now Mark 9:33-37 (CEB) 33 They entered Capernaum. When they had come into a house, he asked them, “What were you arguing about during the journey?” 34 They didn’t respond, since on the way they had been debating with each other about who was the greatest. 35 He sat down, called the Twelve, and said to them, “Whoever wants to be first must be least of all and the servant of all.” 36 Jesus reached for a little child, placed him among the Twelve, and embraced him. Then he said, 37 “Whoever welcomes one of these children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me isn’t actually welcoming me but rather the one who sent me.” Mark 10:13-15 (CEB) 13 People were bringing children to Jesus so that he would bless them. But the disciples scolded them. 14 When Jesus saw this, he grew angry and said to them, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them, because God’s kingdom belongs to people like these children. 15 Whoever doesn’t welcome God’s kingdom like a child will never enter it.

John 3:3-5 Romans 8:14-15

Love is complicated. Or it at least seems that way. But yet love is a necessity for all of us! To really know love and to know the Love that God the Father says he has for us, we look to Jesus. Jesus who takes broken people and through a cross makes them beautiful because of his love. You are a beloved child of God!

This sermon teaches about the privilege and love God has bestowed unto us, calling us His sons.
