Note: The sermon audio contains an important caveat not in the notes, warning not to turn this test backwards and try to create a right relationship with God by loving others. John tells us that God is love and love is from God, so loving others is only possible if you are already in a right relationship with God and therefore empowered by God to love. The first two verses of chapter 2 which were covered in the previous sermon spoke of the way to be made right with God. This passage is intended to be a way for Christians who have already been made right with God to discern whether others are right with God and to renew confidence in relationship to God.
