Five Lies that Keep us From Jesus, Part 1 | 1 John 1:5-10, 2:1-2

September 12, 2021 by Brad Murphy

This sermon is part 2 of 12 in the Fall Back to Jesus

DIGITAL BULLETIN 12 September 2021

Week 2 – Fall Back to Jesus

“Fall Back to Jesus is a sermon series on 1 John that will encourage you to turn from the powers and impulses of culture and sin to the power of Jesus Christ the true God and eternal life.”

In this message, you will learn how God exposes three lies that keep us from Jesus. In part 2, next week, you will learn how the last two lies cripple our relationships and keep us from living as Jesus lived.

WORSHIP BY GIVING

And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

1 John 5:20 (ESV)

Five Lies that Keep us From Jesus, Part 1

| 1 John 1:5-10, 2:1-2 | 1 John 4:10 | 2 Corinthians 5:21 |

This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 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 cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

1 John 1:5-10 (ESV), emphasis added
  1. Lying about our FELLOWSHIP
  2. Lying about our NATURE
  3. Lying about our DEEDS
  4. …
  5. …

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 2 He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

1 John 2:1-2 (ESV), emphasis added
