If / Then statements According to John
Spiritual If / Then statements in 1 John 1:5-8
The message John gave that came straight from Jesus:
God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
IF we walk in the light…
verse 7 #1 Then we have fellowship one with another
#2 Then Jesus’ blood / His death on the cross is applied to us
IF we confess our sins…
verse 9 Then He will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
IF we claim to have fellowship with Him yet walk in darkness…
verse 6 Then we lie and do not live out the truth
Someone might say they have fellowship with God, but the truth is their life is a lie.
IF we claim to be without sin…
verse 8 Then we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us
verse 10 Then we make Him out to be a liar and His word is not in us
We have God’s light in us.
Stay in the light of God’s Word, take seriously God’s encouragement to watch our life and faith closely, then the darkness of sin won’t overwhelm us.
Church, keep walking in the light and be the light
