Read 1 John 5

Use the Swedish Method
Take turns to discuss highlights, questions and applications from the passage.
A light bulb: This should be something that ‘shines’ from the passage—whatever impacts most, or draws attention.
A question mark: Anything that is difficult to understand in the text, or a question the reader would like to ask the writer of the passage or the Lord.
An arrow: A personal application for the reader’s life
Added discussion questions reflecting on what we have learnt so far:
*How does John's assurances in the book of 1 John help us deal with times of doubt?
*Why would obedience to God's commands affect our confidence in prayer?
*Why do you think John reduces the commandments to a single command to be obeyed?
*How would you counsel someone who lacked assurance that he/she was a Christian?
