St Mary Abbots 12th October: Systematic Thought

1 John 3.1-15

Trying to explain how it call works.

Classic systematic theology

We are God's children now

Sin in its proper context
Good/Jesus
Eveil/Devil

Love one another.

Then, a few nuances!

Revelation - the most common verb here - (read it again!)

Sin
Linked to title Son of God
in destroying the works of the devil

Love
commandment
from the beginning
not popular in the world
love-life
hatred-death

New York Revisited

It was very good to be back in New York. Nine years since I was last there and, shared with friends, it was a great time.

Particularly, staying next to Ground Zero (the last time I was there I went to the top of the World Trade Centre) provided poignant refelction and thought throughout.

A super time!
