Life in Christ by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Sadly, we are missing a co-host today. Zack is not able to record with us for the time being so cut us a little slack haha! Today we get to look at what it means to walk in the light. It involves repentance, holy living, and confessing our sin to God on a regular basis. As usual, there are many potential errors we could fall into related to this topic. We hope that from today’s episode you will gain some more insight into the book of 1 John and will be inspired to live for the Lord as you head into a new week.

Next week we will be discussing the reading from chapter 12 of “Life in Christ” by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (pages 125-134).

Thank you for listening to this increasingly unpopular yet very important topic! After looking to God, we must look at ourselves to see our sin. This requires looking into God’s Word and believing what it says about us. We have to confront what it means to “walk in darkness” before we can have fellowship with God, in whom there “is no darkness at all.” Even though this is not the most comfortable subject to discuss and think about, it is crucial to our Christian life, as we will continue to see. We hope this episode is a help to you and a sober reminder for all of us that will produce closer communion with Christ.

Next week we will be discussing the reading from chapter 11 of “Life in Christ” by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (pages 115-124).

How does God’s holiness fit with the main theme of first John—joy? It all goes back to our fellowship with God, which we cannot know fully without understanding God’s holiness and pursuing holiness in our own lives. This conversation touches on the fact that preaching should start with God and not man’s perceived needs, the importance of education in and submission to the Word of God, the shortcomings of human philosophy and man’s reasoning, the overemphasis and mis-definition of love in our society today, and more. We are glad you have chosen to join in the discussion!

Next week we will be discussing the reading from chapter 10 of “Life in Christ” by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (pages 105-114).
