1 John 1

John is among those who were eyewitnesses to Jesus’ life and teaching (His words and works, including His death and resurrection). As an eyewitness, John has the words of eternal life. Life that comes from the Father and is only available through Jesus.

That life is available to all, although not all will experience it. You see, we have a sin problem. By default, we walk in the darkness. The only cure? To have our sins eradicated. Wiped out. Gone. The good news is…that’s why Jesus came. He lived a perfect life…He Himself walked in the light…He died a sacrificial death to pay the penalty for sin, and He was raised to life on the third day, conquering death so that He might give eternal life to all who would believe in Him. You can do that today. Then you, too, can walk in the light and have fellowship with the Father and the Son.
