Drawing from the Apostle John's encouragement to Christ-followers found in 1 John 2:12-14 -- children, young men, and fathers -- Don Baker discusses important characteristics of our journey in Christlikeness from new believer to mature bondservant.
In his brief statement, John emphasizes how each stage of spiritual maturity reflects different aspects of our faith and understanding.
- Children are recognized for knowing the Father and having their sins forgiven.
- Young Men are strong, the Word of God abides in them, and they have overcome the evil one.
- Fathers have deep knowledge of God, having known Him from the beginning.
