One blogger writes, “Today, I found out that shutting off the heat in the rental property my parents owned was a bad idea.

    We live in an age of information, with great technological advancement. People have an opportunity to be more connected now than ever, but many are isolated and alone. They seek real peace and truth. This is found only in Jesus!

    As John begins this mighty epistle, he does so by exalting the Lord, Jesus Christ. We must never lose our focus and awe of the Lord. The first few verses of the epistle set the stage for what is to follow.

    A Witness to the Word of Life 1 John 1: 1-4 Tonight I want to begin a study of the first epistle of John. Although John never mentions himself directly in this epistle, he is universally accepted as the author.

    Truth matters. Truth in belief and truth in behaviour. It matters what we believe about Jesus. It matters how we live

    John is a passionate writer. Maybe he realises that he’s coming to the end of his life and he doesn’t have much time left to get his message across. Maybe he looks around at the church and realises that the inexorable drift from the gospel to religion is impacting on those he’s ...read more
