The Apostle John wasn't just another disciple—he was the one who leaned on Jesus' chest at the Last Supper, stood at the foot of the cross when others fled, and took Mary into his home at Jesus' request. Now, decades later, this eyewitness shares profound truths about fellowship with God that still transform lives today.Pastor Brandon takes us through 1 John Chapter 1, a letter written by someone who could genuinely say, "I touched Him with my own hands." We discover why John, writing around 90 AD from Ephesus during Domitian's brutal persecution, felt compelled to combat early Gnostic teachings by emphasizing Jesus' physical reality. More than just historical facts, John's message centers on bringing believers into the same joy-filled fellowship he experienced with Christ.The heart of this passage revolves around a revolutionary concept: "God is light and in Him is no darkness at all." Through vivid exposition, we unpack what it means to walk in this light through honest confession and receiving God's faithful forgiveness. John's message strikes at our tendency to minimize sin while maximizing God's promise that His forgiveness is completely reliable—like a check that never bounces.Ready to experience the authentic joy that comes from true fellowship with God?
