This Ready Answer card puts the Scriptures in your hand for that question, and for the friend who asks it of you.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeter told Christians to \u003cem\u003ealways be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you\u003c\/em\u003e (1 Peter 3:15). Few questions test that readiness like this one. Some people feel sure of heaven on the strength of a feeling, and some faithful saints never let themselves rest in God's promises at all. John wrote so that we could know we have eternal life, and this card follows the Scriptures from the gospel we obey to the grace that keeps us. It's a 5 × 8 study card, printed front and back. The front covers God's desire for you to know, the obedience of faith, what He promises the obedient, and salvation by grace. The back covers the tests of 1 John, what to do when a Christian sins, the difference between assurance and presumption, and help when doubts come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery point carries references only. No verse is printed out, so the card works with whatever translation is open on the table. Read the passages for yourself, or turn to them with a friend and let the text speak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGod Wants You to Know:\u003c\/strong\u003e John's purpose in writing, a God who cannot lie, the full assurance of faith, and why feelings alone can mislead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHave I Obeyed the Gospel?:\u003c\/strong\u003e hearing and believing, repenting and confessing Christ, being baptized into Christ, and obeying from the heart\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat He Promises the Obedient:\u003c\/strong\u003e no condemnation in Christ, sins washed away, the seal of the Spirit, and being kept by God's power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaved by Grace:\u003c\/strong\u003e grace through faith, a salvation no one earns, Christ who intercedes for us, and the blood that keeps on cleansing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBy This We Know:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeping His word, loving the brethren, walking in the light, and the Spirit He has given us\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhen I Sin as a Christian:\u003c\/strong\u003e confessing sin, repentance and prayer, grace to help in time of need, and refusing to go on living in sin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssurance, Not Presumption:\u003c\/strong\u003e taking heed lest we fall, the real possibility of falling away, making our calling sure, and staying faithful to the end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhen Doubt Troubles You:\u003c\/strong\u003e a God who knows all things, nothing that can separate us from His love, love that casts out fear, and being ready for His coming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFormat \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne 5 × 8 card, printed on both sides, with more than eighty Scripture references.
