Today’s Feast
Oct. 21, 2014-1st John 1&2
Walking in the Light
Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will
spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word
in approximately three years. Gods
Not Dead!
“13 I can do all things through Christ who
strengthens me ” Philippians
4:13 New King James Version (NKJV)
An overview; “This epistle is a discourse upon the principles of
Christianity, in doctrine and practice. The design appears to be, to refute
and guard against erroneous and unholy tenets, principles, and practices,
especially such as would lower the Godhead of Christ, and the reality and power
of his sufferings and death, as an atoning sacrifice; and against the
assertion that believers being saved by grace, are not required to obey the
commandments. This epistle also stirs up all who profess to know God, to have
communion with him, and to believe in him, and that they walk in holiness,
not in sin, showing that a mere outward profession is nothing, without the
evidence of a holy life and conduct. It also helps forward and excites real
Christians to communion with God and the Lord Jesus Christ, to constancy in
the true faith, and to purity of life.“ - Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by
reading the book of 1 John Chapter 1
& 2; “The apostle prefaces his epistle to believers in general, with
evident testimonies to Christ, for promoting their happiness and joy. (1-4) The
necessity of a life of holiness, in order to communion with God, is shown. (5-10)
Chapter 2 The
apostle directs to the atonement of Christ for help against sinful
infirmities. (1-2)
The effects of saving knowledge in producing obedience, and love to the
brethren. (3-11) Christians
addressed as little children, young men, and fathers. (12-14) All
are cautioned against the love of this world, and against errors. (15-23) They
are encouraged to stand fast in faith and holiness. (24-29)”
- Matthew Henry Concise
In chapter 1 The apostle opens in the beginning;
(see 1 John 1:1-4)
by honoring Jesus the Word
of life. He says the
believers should be (see 1 John 1:5-10) walking and working in the light
remembering where we came from; “10 If we say that we have not sinned,
we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. ” 1 John 1:10 New King James Version
(NKJV). In chapter 2 The apostle reminds us to avoid sin; (see 1
john 2:1-2) and if we do sin Jesus is still our advocate. We believers should keep His commandments (see 1
John 2:3-11) and love one another. Our sins are forgiven in
Jesus name's sake (see 1
John 2:12-14) and He is our savior having paid for all of our sins. Our
sins are forgiven in Jesus name's sake (see 1
John 2:12-14) and He is our savior having paid for all of our sins. “28 And now, little children, abide in
Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before
Him at His coming. 29 If you know that He is righteous, you know that
everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.” 1
John 2:28-29 NKJV. These verses remind us that if we want to
see heaven and be with Jesus (see
John
3:6-8) we must be born
again. “8
I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart.”” Psalm 40:8 NKJV. Examine you
heart saint (see Romans
6:23) all we give up when
we accept Jesus is the sin which hurts and kills us. When we put Jesus at the center of our heart
we will (see Ephesians
5:8) walk in the light.
Do you want to trust God? If the answer is yes; today is the
day of your salvation! Don’t wait another minute to leave, change or
quit anything (see Revelation
3:20) Jesus is at knocking at your door this minute. He wants you
to come just as you are! Do you hear Jesus calling you?
Will you answer Him today? Do you want to find true happiness, peace and
