    The first letter of John was written to Christians to help them have joy, overcome sin, recognize false teachers, and to be assured of their eternal life. To do that, believers had to recognize the reality of Jesus and a relationship with Him.

    John gives us three very important concepts to grab hold of: If we live in the dark, God does not live within us; if we live in the truth, He is within us and we walk perfectly with Him; and lastly, repentance is more than words; it's a life change.

    Forgiveness is found in Christ 1 John Bible Study, Part 2 1 John 1:5-10 Introduction - The author of this letter (or epistle) is the disciple, John - This Epistle was probably written in Ephesus between the years 95–110. -- It was written to counter Docetism: belief that Jesus did ...read more

    Encouragement means coming alongside and inputting courage. Where courage has faded away, encouragement is the putting back or refilling of courage. The leaders of the early church gave one man, Barnabas, the nickname "Son of encouragement".

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service there are three Scripture readings prior to the Message.

    John is going to share the things he’s heard from Jesus and he’s going to start with an understanding of who God is. God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. What does this mean for us?

    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

    Do your actions, your faithfulness show you are a part of God's program or does it show that you are outside of it looking on? For you is worshiping the Lord a matter of service to others and obeying Him. This is what honors Him and gives us our purpose.

    Opening Illustration: This line between truth and falsehood is blurred in our society. We pick up newspapers and read touching stories and later find out that the stories were complete fabrications. We are used to politicians making us promises to get our votes, only to forget those promises once ...read more

    "God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another"

    Open your Bible to the Epistle of 1 John, and I would like for you to follow with me as I read from chapter 1 verse 3 to 8 “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We ...read more

    Walking in the light is conditioned on following Christ. John 8:12 “I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life.” The Epistle of 1 John lays out several conditions for walking in the light.

    Walking in the Light 1 John 1:5-10 Before a person comes to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ the Bible says that that person is in total spiritual darkness. When one comes to Jesus that person no longer needs to be in darkness but in following Christ they have the light of life. As such they are ...read more
