PRAYER:
A MORE CHRISTLIKE CHURCH
With Reverend Hal Perkins
“We know that we have come to know
Him if we keep His commands.”
1 John 2:3
“Whoever says, ‘I know Him,’ but
does not do what He commands is a
liar, and the truth is not in that
person.” 1 John 2:3-4
“But if anyone obeys His word, love
for God is truly made complete in him.
This is how we know we are in Him: ”
“Whoever claims to live in Him
must walk as Jesus did.” 1 John 2:5-6
PROVERB 4:23
“Above all else,
guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.”
Have you been discipled
to guard your heart?
