'Bible (ASV) NT 23: 1 John' Summary
The First Epistle of John is a powerful and personal letter written by the apostle John, likely around the end of the 1st century AD. It addresses a growing threat to the early Christian community: the teachings of Gnosticism, which denied the full humanity of Jesus. John defends the truth of Jesus' incarnation, emphasizing his physical presence and real life on Earth. He also stresses the importance of love as the defining characteristic of true Christianity, contrasting it with the darkness and deception of the world. This epistle offers deep insights into Christian faith, ethics, and the nature of God, urging believers to walk in the light and cultivate genuine love for one another.Book Details
