Authentic Morality: Values in 1 John

Many people in our world view Christianity as an impersonal code of dos and don’ts. John shows us that authentic morality emerges from our identity as children of God. In this audio talk, Winston Smith explores three key elements to authentic morality. Smith shows that morality is not a system of works, but a Person—authentic morality is seen when we image Christ. Smith concludes that John’s introduction of love into morality doesn’t lead to relativism, but to action that sets God’s children apart from the counterfeit morality of the world.
