@Livingwater STUDY6B..SONSHIP.. OUR DESTINY AND DUTY 1JOHN 3:1-10  A)Our DESTINY is Fixed Verse 2 tells us something of what the future holds for the child of God:- (1) The Lord Jesus is coming again. John speaks of the time “”when he appears”” –- look up John 14:3; Titus 2:13 –- and note in the Bible all the signs of the times, the religious, the Jewish and the commercial signs, all point to the fact that the coming of the Lord must be very near indeed –- James 5:8!

It is important to recognise that John’’s writings were particularly for the Family, whereas Peter, James and Jude wrote about the Kingdom, and Paul about the Church. In this study we have clear teaching for members of God’’s family, God’’s children. But are not all people the children of God? No, not in the sense that John points out. In a creative sense we are all the children of God, that is, we are His offspring (Acts 17:28-29); but in a spiritual and redemptive sense we only become the children of God when we have received the Lord Jesus Christ and are born into His family (John 1:11-13). Compare 1 John 3:1-2. When John wrote his letter he addressed a particular class of people, thos
