The Stages of Maturity – 1 John; Truth

As we study 1 John 2:12-14, we see that John gives us the three stages of spiritual maturity and what each of these must do.

While ABP is not a scholarly work, I would like to reference any material that my teaching was based on or influenced by:

The ESV Study Bible (Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2008), p. 2431

-John Piper, Desiring God (Multnomah Publishers, Inc., 2003), p. 18, I quoted “The chief  end of man is to glorify God by enjoying Him forever.”
