Truth and Love: 2 and 3 John

16 and 23 November

Which one should we treasure more, truth or love? They seem in conflict with each other. In our 21st century world of “you do you”, should we stand up for the truth of the gospel even if it means being “unloving”? Or should we express Jesus’ love and go quiet on some truth? These 2 short letters contend for both. “Grace, mercy and peace… will be with us in truth and love” (2 John 3). We’ll find a noble woman whose children are “walking in the truth” (2 John 4). And we’ll meet Gaius, famous for his love (3 John 6). In this short 2-week series, we’ll encounter real people, real followers of Jesus, real issues of sticking to the truth and living out Jesus’ love.

    Jesus Christ the Eternal Son

    “…We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one being with the Father; through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary and became truly human…”

    In the second sermon in our series on the Nicene Creed, Luke Prentice helps us come to a deeper understanding of the hypostatic union of Jesus the 100% divine and Jesus the 100% human. This concept is a common challenge for many people exploring Christianity, and yet it is a crucial duality that made Jesus life, death and resurection effective for us.

    Luke gently helps his listeners to come to a deeper understanding of this part of Chirstian faith with the aid of John 1:1-14 and Hebrews 2:14-18
