Title: News to You (1 John 1:5-10)
Whether we live a social life or a religious life, interpersonal relationships must be smooth.
And a Christian must have a smooth relationship with God in order to prosper in anything.
God loved the world so much that he sent his only begotten Son to bring reconciliation between God and us.
He sent Jesus as a mediator to accomplish this.
And it is the mediator between Jesus Christ and the world that has made us children of God.
He raised them up and called them to preach the gospel, that is, the kingdom of God.
That is why Jesus already died on the cross for us and was obedient to the point of death and shed His blood.
You have forgiven your sins with

for our fellowship is with the Father and his Son, Jesus Christ."
In order for us to live a life full of joy in this way, we must live with God as children of God.
Your relationship should be smooth and you should be thrilled with the grace of Jesus Christ.
Because the source of the strength we live in lies there.
If so, can we really be reconciled to God?
As sinners from birth, we have a relationship with the great God who created and ruled and judged the heavens and the earth and all things.
There is a process that must be passed in order to become reconciled.
" (Romans 5:9) And now that we have been justified by his blood, much more by him
You will be saved from wrath."
“(1 John 1:7) If we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another.

If we believe in Jesus and walk in the light, God always accepts us.

While we are in fellowship with God, we cannot enjoy the richest, most fertile, and prosperous life.

How should we, believers, who have everything in faith, live so that God will be pleased?
1. Our relationship should not change.
“(1 John 1:1) Concerning the first word of life from the beginning, we have heard and seen with our eyes, and
The bar that we touched with our necks and our hands"
" (1 John 1:3) What we have seen and heard, we also tell you, so that you may have communion with us.
for our fellowship is with the Father and his Son, Jesus Christ."
We often become discouraged, frustrated, and anxious because our relationship with God is often cut off.
because it is
It is because my relationship with God is shaken according to my mood, emotions, and environment.
No matter how good I am, it means nothing unless God is with me.

No matter how precious I am, if God does not approve it, I
You can't tie a hawk.
This is because good can be achieved only when God cooperates in all things.
So we glorify God according to what we have seen, heard, and experienced,
Only when we exalt and boast of God's name with what we have is our value.
Therefore, the most precious thing for us is a life of unchanging faith.
You must not lose your first love, first emotion, and first happiness.
As long as we have a solid relationship with God and live a life with Jesus Christ,
There can never be any worries or worries.
All things are in God and all problems can be solved in the name of Jesus Christ.
"(Psalm 145:20) The LORD will protect all who love him, and he will destroy all the wicked."
2. Jesus should be our joy.
It is not easy to find true joy and satisfaction in our lives.
It is not easy to live while enjoying the true happiness of life.
But the Bible guides us on the way to live a happy and satisfying life.
It is believing in Jesus Christ and living with Jesus.
“(1 John 1:4) We are writing this so that our joy may be full.”
"(Philippians 4:7) Then the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, may enter your hearts in Christ Jesus
and will keep your thoughts."
“(Hab 3:18) I will rejoice in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.”
“(John 16:22) Now you are grieved, but when I see you again your hearts will rejoice.
No one can take your joy away."
In this way, our true joy and satisfaction can be enjoyed through God through the Lord Jesus Christ.
can be.
And no one can take away the joy that comes from above.
This is our true joy.
Longing for spiritual grace that is not like the world gives.
Do not be satisfied with the momentary pleasures of this world, but overflow from the depths of our lives.
Enjoy deep satisfaction and joy with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus alone is our eternal joy and satisfaction.
3. As a man of God, we must walk in the light.
“(1 John 1:5) This is the news we have heard from him and are preaching to you, that God is light.
and there is no darkness in him.”
It is truly spiritual that we live as people of God.
It means to overcome darkness and live by light.
if we
" (1 John 1:6) ... If you say you have a relationship with God and act in darkness, you are lying and practicing the truth.
I don't mean it."
“(1 John 1:7) If we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another.
and the blood of his Son Jesus will cleanse us from all sin.”
Jesus gave us the example of living by light as life.
A life of humble obedience in which the Word became flesh and dwells among us, a life of obedience to death,
And the life of sacrifice that took up the cross and shed every drop of blood, sweat, and blood, was never a loser.
No.
Rather, it is the image of a victor and showed the example of life with the light.
We must now imitate the life of Jesus.
To do this, we must receive the forgiveness of sins and be cleansed from the unrighteousness of our lives in the name of Jesus.
" (1 John 1:9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins.
He will cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
Do we have this commitment today?
Do you have service?
Do you have an example of a light life?
If we want to live as people of God, we must live in the light.
Our relationship with God must not change.
Jesus is our eternal joy and satisfaction.
As a man of God, we must walk in the light.
You have passed this on to us.
We must live like this.
It is what our lives tell us.
Now, let's preach the gospel with a light life.
