His Word is a Lamp: 1 John

7/8/2024

 
From Pastor Andy
“-that which we have seen and heard we proclaim to you,

so that you too may have fellowship with us;
and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with His son, Jesus Christ.”
1 John 1:3, ESV


Didn’t Eric do a great job teaching on Sunday? He covered and explained several important topics from John’s letter. One thing Eric pointed out was that John was an eyewitness of Jesus’ ministry, that he was the last surviving among the 12 apostles. Thus, John was instructing the people of God about how to live and be discerning once he was no longer be with them. As an eyewitness, John had the privilege of knowing Jesus very personally and closely. John’s ministry flowed out of that. He said his fellowship was with God and Jesus and then invited the readers into the same fellowship.
It's vital to our lives and ministries that we also walk in fellowship with God the Father and God the Son, for the sake of our souls and for the sake of the ministries we’ve been called to by Him. This all came out of John seeing and hearing Jesus at work. I think we would be wise to learn from John’s model, so keep listening to Him and keep watching for Him at work. 

Keep walking the good walk with Jesus,

Pastor Andy
