In God's Light (1 John 1:5-2:2)
Summary
If the foundation of fellowship is the incarnation of Jesus, what does the incarnation of Jesus do for us to provide fellowship? John summarizes the whole of the gospel in a few words: God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all. If that is the news about Jesus, what does it mean for us? Simply, it means we are exposed. And when there's no more hiding, relationships are really different. They must now begin with confession.
