I. JOHN 1:1

THIS title seems to bring before us Christ as the Eternal One, manifested to us on the ground of His death and resurrection by the Word and Spirit of God, and to whom we are united by the power of the Holy Spirit. The first Epistle of John speaks of-

  1. The manifestation of His life to us when we were born again (1Jo. 1:2)
  2. Who is our Life? “The Son of God” (1Jo. 5:20).
  3. The character of our life-“eternal” (1Jo. 1:2).
  4. The gift of the life by the Father (1Jo. 5:11).
  5. The position He has brought us into-“out of death into life” (1Jo. 3:14, R.V.)
  6. The knowledge of it through the Word of God (1Jo. 5:13).
  7. Where the life is-in Christ (1Jo. 5:11). Where the life is-in us (1Jo. 5:12).
  8. Who have the life-believers (1Jo. 5:12).
  9. Who have not life-unbelievers (1Jo. 5:12).
  10. Future manifestation of it (1Jo. 2:25; Col. 3:4).

Let us remember Christ is our Life. He is the Prince of Life, let us be ruled by Him; He is the Path of Life, to walk in Him; He is the Light of Life, to look to Him; He is the Fountain of Life, to drink of Him; He is the Bread of Life, to feed upon Him; He is the Tree of Life, to abide in Him; He is the Word of Life, to rest in Him.
