Walking in the Light | Pastor Phil | Jesus Lives Ministries

@JesusLives Dear Brothers and Sisters, All of you know that the world we live in today is full of deceit and darkness. That is why Jesus tells us in 1 John 5-7 that we must walk in the light. "𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐰𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮: 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭; 𝐢𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥. 𝐈𝐟 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐞𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐰𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡. 𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐰𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭, 𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭, 𝐰𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬, 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐒𝐨𝐧, 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐢𝐧." We cannot live in darkness and have communion with God, who is light. Darkness is a metaphor for concealing things that are obviously incorrect and darkness serves as a veil to hide our hidden sins or motivations. When the reality of the Word of God reveals anything that calls for a definite course of action, our sinful nature tries to obfuscate the way by taking into account human emotions and reasoning. When the light of truth is dimmed, everything turns gray, and there is no clear solution in the gray. Any attempt to avoid the truth will aim to make the situation more grayscale, leading to uncertainty and confusion. Today more than ever, we must "𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭" and be an example to others. Please join us this Thursday at 7:30PM for great fellowship, and a good word called "𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐤 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭". Watch our livestream every Thursday night at 7:30pm PST   / jesuslivesseattle      / jesuslives   If you're watching YouTube on a TV, just search for: "𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐮𝐞” We have a new way to Give!
