The 3 Principles of Living The Life:
By: Pastor Paul Castillano
📖 1. A WORD THAT GIVES LIFE
Scripture: 1 John 1:1–4; John 20:27
Jesus Christ is the Word of Life, who came to reveal the eternal life found in Him. Through God’s Word, we come to know Jesus personally, believe in Him, and experience fellowship with the Father and His Son.
🌿 Principle: God’s Word leads us to Jesus, strengthens our faith, and gives us the hope of eternal life.
📖 2. ABIDE IN THE WORD OF GOD
Scripture: 1 John 2:3–4; John 14:15
Knowing God is more than simply reading the Bible or hearing His Word. True knowledge of God is demonstrated through obedience to His commands. When we abide in His Word, our faith grows, our character changes, and our lives reflect our love for Jesus.
🌿 Principle: Obedience is the evidence of our love for God. We show that we know Him by living according to His Word.
📖 3. THE BLOOD OF JESUS BRINGS FORGIVENESS
Scripture: 1 John 1:7–10; Ephesians 1:7
When we walk in the light and honestly confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Through the blood of Jesus Christ, we receive redemption and forgiveness according to the riches of His grace.
🌿 Principle: There is forgiveness and cleansing through Jesus Christ. We must come to Him in repentance, trust in His grace, and continue walking in His light.
❤️ LIFE APPLICATION
Let us allow the Word of God to give us life, guide our obedience, and remind us of the forgiveness we have through Jesus Christ. May our faith be seen not only in what we say, but also in how we live.
🙏 PRAYER
Lord Jesus, thank You for Your Word that gives life, teaches us to obey You, and reminds us of Your saving grace. Help us to know You more deeply, walk faithfully in Your truth, and live daily in the light of Your presence. May our lives bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏❤️
