1 John Part 1

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3We 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. 1 John 1:1-3


Jesus Christ personifies life and eternal life. He is the Word of life, meaning he communicates life. Jesus Christ is real. John and others touched him with their hands and saw him with their eyes.


If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.1 John 1:6


May I quit living like a liar! I have Jesus and can walk in him and have fellowship with Christ and other Christians. May he purify me from my sin!
