This Is How You Know | Sunday Message (with Jonathan Laurie)
Erase your doubts when it comes to life’s ultimate question: Do I have eternal life? In this message, we’ll see what fruits those who really have Heaven awaiting them bear. Notes: Focus verse - 1 John 5 READ: 1 John 5 (NKJV) #1 Marks of a True Believer The Greek word John used here is “nikao.” Conquering will not be proven by your arrogance, words, or feelings, it will be proven by your actions. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.Romans 8:37 (NKJV) READ: 1 John 5:1–2 • Faith that Jesus is the Christ, and that He is the Son of God • Love for God and His people • Obedience to the Word READ: 1 John 5:3 (NKJV) How you know: Faith, love, and obedience ... These are not prerequisites to being saved. They are products of being born again. #2 The Evidence for Our Faith1 John 5:6–12 The Water, the Blood, and the Spirit Incarnation is the doctrine that Jesus was fully God and fully man. You don’t just know about the truth… you feel it, sense it, and live it. Do you have the Son?1 John 5:12 Jesus is not a step in the process.He is the whole process. #3 Standing in Victory1 John 5:13–21 Confidence in salvation gives you confidence in prayer. Prayer isn’t about getting what we want; it’s about aligning with what God wants. READ: 1 John 5:16–17 If you are standing in victory, you need to help pull others out of defeat. READ: 1 John 5:21 Whatever you do, don’t let anything take Jesus’ place in your heart. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

How to Live a Successful Christian Life | Reconnecting with God
When astronauts used to orbit the moon, there was a period of about 45 minutes when they were on the back side of the moon and couldn’t receive any signals from NASA’s Mission Control. Those were the longest 45 minutes of the mission! Well, believers often go through periods of disconnection from the wisdom of God’s Word. We’re without that supernatural power and direction. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie helps us reconnect to Scripture, and see more success in our walk of faith.
