The first chapter talks about John's desire for us to have fellowship with the Father and Jesus. As we saw in 1 Jo. 1:5-10, for us to have fellowship with the Father we have to walk in the light as He is in the light. In this passage we are going to see how to have fellowship with Jesus.
Why did John write these things?
What happen if we sin?
How does Christ deal with our sins? Only ours?
Propitiation means that Jesus appeased God's wrath against sin through His sacrifice at the cross turning us to be innocent.
Verse 4 talks about a kind of knowledge of God who doesn't leads to fellowship with God. Why?
According to verses 3,5,6 what do we need to know Jesus?
Application:
1-We'll know Jesus if we study the Word, fill ourselves with the Holy Spirit, practice the Word for our growth, and acquire knowledge that comes from a personal experience with God.
