Episode 018 – An Unhappy Heresy
Review of Last Week — Loving the World = Spiritual Adultery
If only all the heretics were this easy to spot!
Historical setting of 1 John and 1 John 2:18-29
- Response to heresy? What is heresy?
- A belief or teaching that denies an accepted fundamental truth of the Christian faith, usually falling into certain categories:
- The Holy Spirit is not a person, but an “it” or an “influence”;
- The Persons of the Godhead are not co-equal and co-eternal;
- There are many gods;
- Human beings can become god.
Beliefs about salvation – basically that something else (works, for example) must be added to the work of Christ to gain heaven.
Beliefs about Christ – usually the major category.
Can’t study early church history without studying theology, and vice versa.

Episode 017 – Why the Impossible Is Impossible
Not a "sign from God" (but just as obvious)
Review of Last Week’s “Worldly” Word Study
The Command in 1 John 2:15-17 and the Reason for It:
- Don’t love the world-order or its things
- If you love the world-order and its things, the love of God isn’t in you.
“All that is in the world-order” – what’s included in “all”?
- The word for lust – Greek = epithumeia (noun) and epithumeo (verb)
