Lesson 26: Why You Should Believe that Jesus is the Son of God, Part 1 (1 John 5:6-9)

“What are you going to believe about Jesus?” That is the foundational question everyone must ask and answer, and where one goes to get the answers to such a question makes all the difference. John reminded his readers that there were testimonies to choose from: the lesser testimony from men and the greater testimony from God. And so, hearing what God has said about His Son is of tremendous importance. Pastor Daniel looks at this interesting text and emphasizes, “God testifies with an authoritative voice that must be believed,” and then concludes with the application, “the only appropriate response to [what God has testified] is, ‘Yes I believe.’”
