John, the apostle whom Jesus loved and the author of the fourth gospel writes today's letter to the church with encouragement to flee from sin, to trust in Jesus, to love one another, and to assure them of the eternal life that Christ has secured for them. This letter doesn't have a typical structure; unlike other epistles it doesn't address a particular church or mention individual people. The nature of fellowship with one another and the relationships between mankind and their God are at the forefront of this letter, as John uses the marks of Christian love to strengthen true believers and convict false converts who hate those whom they call “brother.”1 John 1 - 1:16 . 1 John 2 - 3:16 . 1 John 3 - 8:57 . 1 John 4 - 14:24 . 1 John 5 - 18:30 .

We all know the battle between the person we want to be and the choices we actually make. In Romans 7, Paul names this inner war — and shows us that freedom doesn't come by hiding our sin, but by bringing it into the light. In this message, we explore the power of confession in community and the rescue only Jesus can bring.Catch the sermon on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or bridge.tv/sermons.To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrCSupport the show

Pastor Ray Bentley says, we all have a choice about our personal walk of faith. When you walk in the light and have fellowship with God, you have more joy and peace and love and all the fruits of the spirit. You turn your back on God. You dive into the darkness. You're going to be the opposite of love and the opposite of peace.

Pastor Kevin Cawley brings greeting from Frontline Downtown, teaching on 1 John 1:1-4 and the call of churches to strive together in communion.
1 John 1:1-4 Koinonia (fellowship) means partnership; sharing in participation together. What does REAL FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS look like?When we spend time with God, we get the real treasure: God himself! What does REAL FELLOWSHIP WITH OTHERS look like?MY joy can't be complete without you. And OUR joy can't be complete without each other. Challenge … Continue reading The Real Thing: Real Fellowship (1 John 1:1-4) →
Joy in Jesus culminates in a shared testimony!

Pastor Ray Bentley urges us to follow the example of the Apostle John and how we relate to Christ. John came, as did all the other disciples, to the awareness of who Jesus really was. Do you have a personal experience of the reality of the shining glory of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in your heart and in your life?
Pastor Ray Bentley says our words reveal who we are. I start talking, you hear the language in kind of a Southern California lingo. And and then I start telling you about where I was born and I grew up. And the more I talk, the more you get a revelation of who I am. Words reveal who we are to one another.
What does real fellowship look like? In this week's message, Pastor Jesse teaches from 1 John 1 about koinonia—true connection with God and with each other. Discover how honesty, shared life, and giving and receiving in community help us experience the transforming power of the gospel together. The post 1 John 1:1-10 – Life in the Light: The Fellowship We Were Made For appeared first on Sierra Bible Church.
Is there a way to continue with fellowship even as we acknowledge the reality of sin? Yes! This is the plan that God has for us through the ongoing work of Jesus.

Welcome to Day 2694 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me.This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to WisdomDay 2694 – A Joyful Life - God is Light and Our Blight - 1 John 1:5-10Putnam Church Message – 08/10/2025Sermon Series: 1, 2, & 3 John“A Joyful Life – God's Light and Our Blight.” Last week, we explored “A Joyful Life - God is Life,” from 1 John 1:1-4, and we focused on Communion and Joy with God and each other.This week, we continue through the letter of 1 John, and we will cover 1 John 1:5-10 as we explore “God's Light and Our Blight.” Let's read 1 John 1:5-10 from the NIV, which is found on page 1899 of your Pew Bibles.Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[a] sin.8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.Opening PrayerAt some point in each of our lives, we transition from childhood to adulthood, from student to teacher, from mentee to mentor. Wisely, my parents had me wait a year after high school before entering college. I needed that extra year to mature and earn additional money. By God's grace and planning, it also allowed me to meet Paula in her first year; otherwise, God would have had to work out our meeting in another way. I remember when I was on my way out, heading to college for the first time, I knew that I would be on my own for the rest of my life. My parents did all they could to raise me right, to instill in me solid values, words of wisdom, and examples to follow. When I had to cross the threshold of the house that marked the moment of my transition from dependent child to independent adult, my parents knew that they had taught me the best they knew how, and now the decisions to continue walking in that knowledge were up to me.I may have been on my own physically, at least for a season—until I began to build my own family and emulate the wisdom and lessons my parents had taught me. But I wasn't on my own spiritually. The words and examples of my parents were always there, becoming increasingly relevant and meaningful as I faced my own real-life situations. As I continued to mature as an adult, I can't remember how many times the words of my mom or dad came back to me, and I thought, “That's what they meant!” They also left me a priceless spiritual legacy, introducing me to the Lord Jesus, a respect for God's Word, and a love for others, especially fellow believers.I imagine something similar happened with Jesus' original disciples. They continued to mature in their understanding of the faith after the Lord Jesus pushed His disciples out of the nest and sent...
