The Greatest Story Ever Told Session #23a: 1 and 2 Peter, 1 John

We continue through the third section of the New Testament--the letters--with two letters from Peter and three letters from John.  In 1 and 2 Peter, our first Pope wrote largely from a baptismal perspective. He encouraged new converts to remain steadfast with Christ, endure suffering and avoid false teaching and teachers.  1, 2 and 3 John feature many themes which permeated the Gospel according to John--light vs. darkness, spirit vs. flesh, love of God and neighbor, testimony, witness, fellowship and belief.

(Note--my recorder's batteries went dead just as I concluded with 1 John.  Thus, this session features 1 and 2 Peter as well as 1 John.  I will post Session 23b which will contain 2 and 3 John.  Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for listening!)
