no, not John, 1 John

Tonight, i met with my small group at church. we have spent time the last two weeks, reading 1 John_ not to be confused with John.

1 John is nestled so far back in the books of the Bible, you could easily flip right on through. [ it's all of 3 1/4 pages in my Bible] .. All but these verses, that practically highlighted themselves as I read.

1 John 1:5 God is light; in Him there is NO darkness at all.

1 John 2:5 But if anyone obeys his Word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in Him: Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.

What a daily challenge _ and yet such an amazing promise. .

1 John 2:28 And now, dear children, continue in Him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.

Continue with Him, He is with us now, will be with us forever. never leaving or forsaking. Continue with Him by your side, tomorrow and the next day... ... .
