It’s always a good idea to remember our
blessings – especially at this time of year.
Most of us have everything we need, and
many, many things that can only be
considered wants. God has blessed us with
so much, I sometimes wonder if we give Him
enough thanks.

1 John 5:1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone
who loves the father loves his child as well.
Throughout his letter John has interwoven the themes of faith, love, and obedience. As
we near the end of the letter John brings all three of these themes together once again to
lay out the test of authentic Christianity.
There are many in Christian circles who boldly claim to be “born again”. According to
research from George Barna anywhere from 35 to 43 percent of the U.S. population
claims to be born again Christians (The Barna Update 3-15-2001). On the other hand we
know that Jesus warned that there will be many who call Him, “Lord”, but at the
judgement He will say, “I never knew you; depart from me, you who practice
lawlessness” (Matthew 7:23). This a sobering reminder that we each have a
responsibility to be sure we are truly born again.
In our world a new birth is a joyous occasion and a time to celebrate. With each new
birth there are obvious signs, tangible things that we can point to and find evidence of
life. If those signs are missing there is cause for great concern.
The same is true for us spiritually. If we have been born again there are obvious signs,
tests that we can look to that indicate whether or not we truly have life. This is why
John has repeated the themes of faith, love, and obedience throughout his letter. They
are the signs of a life born again.
