This teaching is part 9 in the series on 1 John where Kenny goes through 1 John 4:7-21. Kenny shares how love is from God because God is love and that we can only love because he first loves us. So when we love one another it is evidence that we have been born of God and know Him. And if we do not love it is evidence we do not know God.
In this message, “Come Alive”, that Kenny preached at Second Baptist Church, he challenges us to come alive. He calls us to come alive to who we are in Christ, to the Holy Spirit who lives within us, and embrace and step out in Jesus ministry that is found in Luke 4:18-19.

This teaching is part 7 in the series on 1 John where Kenny goes through 1 John 3:11-24.
