This sermon explains that the clearest evidence of genuine new birth is not religious form or spiritual gifts, but a Christlike love that lays down its life in costly, practical ways for brothers and sisters. It contrasts empty words with sacrificial action—sharing material goods, responding when a brother is in need—and shows how such obedience quiets a condemning heart, gives confidence before God in prayer, and flows from the Spirit’s indwelling presence in those who keep His commandments and abide in Christ.
