Summary
Through 1 John 1-2:1, John establishes gospel clarity by calling believers to understand Jesus's divinity and humanity, confess sin honestly rather than hide it, and recognize Jesus as their advocate—not their condemner—who paid sin's debt on the cross.
Highlights
Your faith is not blind. Your faith is not without evidence. You are not just there to believe something that no one has ever seen or has written some mythical cave thousands of years ago away from all humanity.
Jesus is your advocate, not your adversary. When you do sin, Jesus is standing in the courtroom saying he is mine because he is under my blood I've already paid for it.
When we bring things to God, the Word of God says this, that our sin as far as from the east is from the west. That's an infinite distance. The thing that you can't forget, God can't remember because he's already sent it as far as from the east and the west from him.
