What demonstrates your love for God most powerfully? Do you truly know God? John, concerned about believers' assurance in Christ and their relationship with God, asks these question in our passage today? How may we be certain that we know God the Father? Knowing Him includes more than believing facts about Him. We show that we love and know Him by loving others and following His commands. Jesus invites us to walk with Him through life. To live as He lived, to do what He did and to love as He loved. We are not Christians if we are unwilling to walk like Jesus.
