1 John

John writes about what was there from the very start. He heard it with his own ears. He saw it with his own eyes. He reached out and touched it with his own hands. This is the life that was with the Father. Now John shares the story so others can walk with God and with Jesus. He writes so that joy...

God is light. Pure, clean light. No dark hides in him. Not even a little. Some people say they know God but still walk in the dark. That is a lie. But those who walk in the light? They share life together. And the blood of Jesus washes every sin away. Every one.

We all carry sin. Anyone who says they do not is fooling only themselves. The truth is not in that person. But here is the good news. When we tell God what we did wrong, he forgives us. He washes us clean. God keeps his word. He is always fair. Always.
