The First Epistle of John Walking in the Light

The is a Book of Contrasts Light versus Darkness Truth versus Error Love versus Hatred Christians versus the World

The Rise of Gnosticism From the Greek word gnosis (“knowledge”). It would arise in the 2 nd century, but its seeds were already evident. The physical is bad; the spirit is good. Views of Jesus. –Docetism: Christ only seemed to be human. –Cerenthianism: The Divine Christ entered Jesus at His baptism and departed prior to His death. Salvation through knowledge.

Your walk in the light will be evidenced… In how you walk and in what you say In how you obey In how you live In how you love In how you believe 1 st JOHN WALKING IN THE LIGHT Chapter 1Chpt 2Chpt 3Chpt 4Chpt 5
