Certainty and humility Putting together the purposes of Gospel - TopicsExpress



          

Certainty and humility Putting together the purposes of Gospel and letters, Johns purpose is in four stages, namely that his readers may hear, hearing may believe, believing may live, and living may know. His emphasis is important because it is common today to dismiss any claim to assurance of salvation as presumptuous, and to affirm that no certainty is possible on this side of death. But certainty and humility do not exclude one another. If Gods revealed purpose is not only that we should hear, believe and live, but also that we should know, presumptuousness lies in doubting his word, not in trusting it. JOHN STOTT
