In the Light


1Jn 1:5  This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 

1Jn 1:6  If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 

1Jn 1:7  But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 

1Jn 1:8  If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 

1Jn 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 


First we come out of the darkness into the light of God. Then we confess that he exists and has perfect righteousness.


Heb 11:6  And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him. 


Jesus is God's son who came to make a way for us to be forgiven of our sins and bad life. Our sin misses God's best for us. Blood was required for the forgiveness of sins. Jesus gave his perfect life for our sins. His blood was spilled on the cross at Calvary. Jesus is alive now forever more, He overcame sin and death for us.


Those who walk in the light and truth of God have fellowship together in His light. If we sin as believers in Christ Jesus, we just confess our sins and he forgives us.


First we believe that there is an Almighty God. 


Second, By faith we come to Jesus for forgiveness of sins. By doing this God becomes our father and he sees us as without sin as if we were his Son. 


Third, If we sin after being forgiven, we confess our sins and God forgives us as if we were in his Son. We have fellowship with others who are forgiven of their sins. Those who are forgiven are with God forever.
