WEBVTT 00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:04.820 Well, we can turn back together to our reading in 1 John chapter 1. 00:00:06.140 --> 00:00:12.859 ! The main focus this evening is on verse 5 down to the end of that chapter, verse 5 to verse 10. 00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:23.539 And the heading of this section in the ASV Bible is Walking in the Light, which is the theme that we see coming across through these verses that we read. 00:00:23.539 --> 00:00:53.519 Verse 5. 00:00:53.539 --> 00:01:00.200 To these verses this evening, we see that there's a sense of walking put across here. 00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.299 There's various themes that come across through that. 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:06.379 We see the darkness and the light. 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:08.620 We see the good and the bad. 00:01:08.739 --> 00:01:12.000 We see a lot of different contrasts in these verses. 00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:17.259 But they all kind of lead us and guide us towards this walking with God. 00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:21.620 And how or are we walking with God? 00:01:21.620 --> 00:01:26.640 When you think of walking with God, what does that bring to your mind? 00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:28.640 What does it look like to you? 00:01:29.579 --> 00:01:30.760 What do you think of? 00:01:30.780 --> 00:01:33.240 Or maybe who do you think of? 00:01:33.260 --> 00:01:36.719 It maybe leads your mind to think of particular people. 00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:42.560 Maybe someone you've known and you've thought that person has been walking closely with God. 00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:46.460 You can just tell that they're walking closely with God. 00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.879 But perhaps it brings you back to Scripture as well. 00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:54.520 And you think of parts of Scripture that speaks about walking with God. 00:01:55.100 --> 00:01:59.840 Immediately, my mind goes to Genesis when I think of walking with God. 00:02:00.340 --> 00:02:02.320 You go back to Genesis chapter 3. 00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:06.919 And there you find when sin came into the world. 00:02:07.479 --> 00:02:09.900 When Adam and Eve sinned in the garden. 00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:15.620 You read in chapter 3 that in the cool of the day they heard God walking in the garden. 00:02:16.259 --> 00:02:20.219 And it comes across in there as if this was something that was normal. 00:02:20.799 --> 00:02:22.099 Something that was usual. 00:02:22.340 --> 00:02:25.400 Something that had happened on a number of occasions. 00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:28.400 That God would come into the garden and walk. 00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:30.360 But that they would be with him. 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:32.700 There's that sense of that they would have been there. 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.980 Because walking with God has a sense of closeness. 00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:38.319 Fellowship, intimacy with him. 00:02:39.020 --> 00:02:40.740 But when you look at Genesis 3. 00:02:41.200 --> 00:02:43.379 And they heard God walking in the garden. 00:02:43.500 --> 00:02:45.700 It says they hid themselves. 00:02:46.379 --> 00:02:48.540 Because they knew that they had sinned. 00:02:49.060 --> 00:02:54.920 And yet from there you find that Scripture is pointing us towards that walk with God. 00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:57.339 Being reunited in a sense. 00:02:57.459 --> 00:03:00.179 Brought back so that we are walking with God. 00:03:00.259 --> 00:03:03.919 And one person you maybe think of again in Genesis very early on. 00:03:04.519 --> 00:03:06.839 Genesis chapter 5 verse 24. 00:03:07.679 --> 00:03:08.199 Enoch. 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.379 And it says of him in that verse. 00:03:11.459 --> 00:03:14.779 Enoch walked with God and he was not. 00:03:14.899 --> 00:03:16.719 For God took him. 00:03:17.379 --> 00:03:20.139 So this idea of walking with God as you see it. 00:03:20.839 --> 00:03:22.239 Broken in the garden. 00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:23.400 And yet with Enoch. 00:03:23.860 --> 00:03:25.159 That sense of nearness. 00:03:25.860 --> 00:03:27.180 That sense of intimacy. 00:03:27.500 --> 00:03:32.140 Having God with us as a people is so important. 00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.000 It just gives us that image of closeness. 00:03:36.200 --> 00:03:37.000 Of nearness. 00:03:38.020 --> 00:03:39.120 Walking with God. 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.400 And as we come into 1 John here. 00:03:42.480 --> 00:03:46.379 There's that similar kind of vein of walking with God. 00:03:46.379 --> 00:03:50.280 And it's put across here as walking in the light. 00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:52.960 If we walk in the light as he is in the light. 00:03:53.060 --> 00:03:55.039 We have fellowship with one another. 00:03:55.180 --> 00:03:56.280 It says in verse 7. 00:03:57.099 --> 00:03:59.500 So again it's about this closeness. 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.060 A closeness with God. 00:04:02.259 --> 00:04:05.039 That leads to a closeness with one another. 00:04:05.219 --> 00:04:07.359 A fellowship with one another. 00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:10.960 Fellowship is another word that keeps coming through. 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.460 In this chapter as well. 00:04:15.480 --> 00:04:16.900 In verse 3. 00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.680 That which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you. 00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:23.379 So that you may have fellowship with us. 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:26.060 And indeed our fellowship is with the Father. 00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:27.480 And with his Son. 00:04:27.980 --> 00:04:28.840 Jesus Christ. 00:04:28.939 --> 00:04:30.740 So John is writing this. 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:32.079 That their fellowship. 00:04:32.620 --> 00:04:33.740 Their closeness. 00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:34.980 Might be enhanced. 00:04:35.379 --> 00:04:37.079 Might be increased. 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:42.379 But he's writing this letter into the midst of a challenging time. 00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:45.459 When you look at John 1 here. 00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:51.079 He is writing probably to the churches that have been scattered around Ephesus. 00:04:51.719 --> 00:04:53.659 That's the kind of area he would have been in. 00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:57.019 The same kind of churches that you read of in the book of Revelation. 00:04:57.219 --> 00:05:01.979 That John is also the author of the seven churches that he wrote to there. 00:05:02.419 --> 00:05:05.219 Perhaps it's the same churches he's writing this to as well. 00:05:05.220 --> 00:05:07.600 And maybe further afield as well. 00:05:07.660 --> 00:05:10.040 But he's writing to these churches. 00:05:10.180 --> 00:05:13.260 He's writing to churches that have been established. 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.420 But have come into error. 00:05:16.580 --> 00:05:17.840 Have come into fault. 00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:25.580 The letter is written in a time when churches have started to change their outlook on things. 00:05:25.740 --> 00:05:28.460 To bring false teaching in. 00:05:29.060 --> 00:05:31.180 And so he's writing to challenge them. 00:05:31.280 --> 00:05:33.540 He's writing to encourage them. 00:05:33.540 --> 00:05:37.180 And what we find is as he's writing to them. 00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:43.580 He's writing to churches that have been influenced by others who have brought a false gospel. 00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:45.400 A false teaching. 00:05:46.300 --> 00:05:47.920 And as you read through 1 John. 00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:50.680 You find these people described in different ways. 00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:52.040 Deceivers. 00:05:52.939 --> 00:05:53.939 False prophets. 00:05:54.900 --> 00:05:59.200 Even antichrist is the word used in 1 John here. 00:05:59.320 --> 00:06:02.840 It's those who are leading the people away from God. 00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:03.719 They're deceiving. 00:06:04.459 --> 00:06:06.379 They're giving a false message. 00:06:06.739 --> 00:06:07.939 They're leading them astray. 00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:14.779 And you find that he is writing to them because there are serious errors that have come into the church. 00:06:16.019 --> 00:06:19.139 In chapter 2 verse 22 of 1 John. 00:06:19.819 --> 00:06:22.479 They have denied Jesus was the Christ. 00:06:23.159 --> 00:06:24.079 Serious error. 00:06:24.620 --> 00:06:26.459 In chapter 4 verse 2. 00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.019 They are denying that he came in the flesh. 00:06:29.019 --> 00:06:33.379 And then as we look at this chapter in verse 5 to 10. 00:06:33.579 --> 00:06:36.099 We see that they are in denial of sin. 00:06:37.180 --> 00:06:38.199 And all these things. 00:06:38.339 --> 00:06:40.199 They are major errors. 00:06:41.159 --> 00:06:44.879 They are things that are going to lead people away. 00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:48.219 And lead them down the wrong path. 00:06:48.579 --> 00:06:49.919 And so John is writing. 00:06:50.459 --> 00:06:52.939 Writing not just to condemn these things. 00:06:53.299 --> 00:06:54.560 But to encourage. 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.240 You see he addresses these issues. 00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:01.740 And he does it sternly. 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.480 He does it in a strong rebuke. 00:07:06.100 --> 00:07:09.220 But he also does it in a way where he is teaching. 00:07:10.019 --> 00:07:11.379 Where he is instructing. 00:07:11.379 --> 00:07:15.339 You think of the time period that's gone. 00:07:15.899 --> 00:07:19.040 From say the days of the crucifixion of Jesus. 00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:21.399 Up until John is writing this letter. 00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:25.680 You're probably talking about maybe 40, 50 years. 00:07:26.500 --> 00:07:28.719 This is towards the end of the first century. 00:07:28.819 --> 00:07:30.800 The beginning of the second century. 00:07:30.939 --> 00:07:32.779 That John is writing this letter. 00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:34.860 So a number of years have passed. 00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:37.459 And errors have crept into the church. 00:07:37.459 --> 00:07:39.819 And when you look at our own nation. 00:07:39.919 --> 00:07:41.560 And look back say the same period. 00:07:41.699 --> 00:07:43.479 40, 50 years. 00:07:43.620 --> 00:07:44.779 The church in Scotland. 00:07:44.979 --> 00:07:46.759 And how it's changed. 00:07:47.659 --> 00:07:50.419 It's changed in ways we never thought we might see. 00:07:51.299 --> 00:07:52.939 Errors have crept in. 00:07:53.979 --> 00:07:56.839 Things are done now that are wrong. 00:07:57.379 --> 00:07:59.359 But the question is how do we respond? 00:08:00.419 --> 00:08:01.699 Do we just condemn? 00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:04.639 Do we condemn other churches? 00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:05.859 Or other Christians? 00:08:05.860 --> 00:08:08.420 Or do we look at ourselves? 00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:11.879 And ask ourselves questions too. 00:08:12.060 --> 00:08:14.220 Are we walking right with God? 00:08:14.780 --> 00:08:17.300 Are we listening to God the way that we should? 00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:22.720 Are we walking in light of his word to us? 00:08:24.620 --> 00:08:28.120 And what John is doing here is both. 00:08:29.420 --> 00:08:31.280 He will condemn what is wrong. 00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:35.500 The truths that they are teaching. 00:08:35.579 --> 00:08:36.879 The false teaching that they have. 00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:37.879 He will condemn that. 00:08:38.579 --> 00:08:40.799 But he will also challenge those who are Christians. 00:08:41.059 --> 00:08:42.919 Are you walking with God? 00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:45.659 Are you walking right with God? 00:08:46.259 --> 00:08:48.120 So that is what he is doing here. 00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:50.000 And as he is doing it. 00:08:50.019 --> 00:08:53.839 He is doing it by testing them through the word of God. 00:08:53.980 --> 00:08:56.539 Testing them with the word of God. 00:08:56.539 --> 00:09:02.219 It is over 500 years now since the reformation in Europe. 00:09:02.579 --> 00:09:04.419 Which Martin Luther and others brought. 00:09:05.059 --> 00:09:08.299 Brought the people back to the word of God. 00:09:08.860 --> 00:09:11.779 The church was sliding away from the word of God. 00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:16.240 But the reformation brought that word back centrally into the church. 00:09:16.339 --> 00:09:18.679 That we have to look on the word of God. 00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:21.779 And it is something we do not just move on from and forget. 00:09:21.939 --> 00:09:25.299 But we always have to come back to the word of God. 00:09:25.439 --> 00:09:30.919 Because reformation has at its heart a sense of going back. 00:09:31.079 --> 00:09:33.059 Going back to the word of God. 00:09:33.359 --> 00:09:35.279 But also going forward. 00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:40.000 And going forward under the word of God. 00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:42.599 And that is exactly what John is doing here. 00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.719 Taking them back to the word of God. 00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:49.860 So they might go forward by the word of God. 00:09:50.500 --> 00:09:52.740 And if we want to grow as believers. 00:09:52.899 --> 00:09:54.200 We want to grow as a church. 00:09:54.740 --> 00:09:56.660 We have to look and ask. 00:09:56.740 --> 00:10:00.500 Are we walking in light of the word of God? 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:03.139 We look to his truth. 00:10:03.860 --> 00:10:06.800 And we look to the truth of his word. 00:10:07.420 --> 00:10:09.840 And so John is testing that truth here. 00:10:10.259 --> 00:10:12.920 And he is showing how he is testing it for our good. 00:10:12.920 --> 00:10:14.960 And for the good of the church. 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:20.560 And to see are we walking in the light of the word of God. 00:10:21.379 --> 00:10:24.800 And so we want to see the kinds of things that he is challenging here. 00:10:25.420 --> 00:10:28.759 And we begin first of all with a right claim. 00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:31.700 A right truth. 00:10:32.540 --> 00:10:34.680 And we see that in verse 5. 00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:37.940 This is a message we have heard from him. 00:10:37.940 --> 00:10:41.019 And proclaim to you that God is light. 00:10:41.660 --> 00:10:45.019 And in him is no darkness at all. 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:46.960 God is light. 00:10:47.060 --> 00:10:49.960 And in him is no darkness at all. 00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.340 He begins with a sound. 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:53.940 A solid truth. 00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:57.000 God is light. 00:10:57.759 --> 00:11:01.320 What is the substance of the truth that you have? 00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.240 What is the substance of your faith? 00:11:06.060 --> 00:11:07.500 Where is it based upon? 00:11:07.500 --> 00:11:09.840 Is it on your own wisdom? 00:11:10.360 --> 00:11:13.159 Or is it on the word of God? 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:16.159 John begins with God. 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:18.860 God is light. 00:11:18.980 --> 00:11:22.580 In him is no darkness at all. 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:27.220 But we live in a world where we can have our own truth. 00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:30.060 That's the way so many see it. 00:11:31.019 --> 00:11:34.720 There's a statement that's attributed to a former MP. 00:11:34.899 --> 00:11:38.240 A Welsh MP by the name of Anjurin Bevan. 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:39.639 I think is how you pronounce it. 00:11:40.160 --> 00:11:44.980 He was an MP in the very late 1920s into the early 1960s. 00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:45.879 And he said this. 00:11:46.500 --> 00:11:47.960 This is my truth. 00:11:48.460 --> 00:11:49.940 Tell me yours. 00:11:49.940 --> 00:11:53.780 It was him that said that. 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:55.520 If you're into your music. 00:11:55.820 --> 00:11:57.040 A Welsh band. 00:11:57.520 --> 00:12:01.240 The Manic Street Preachers had an album with that very name as well. 00:12:01.300 --> 00:12:02.380 This is my truth. 00:12:02.900 --> 00:12:03.860 Tell me yours. 00:12:04.900 --> 00:12:07.080 And that's the kind of world in which we live. 00:12:08.100 --> 00:12:10.020 We're saying there's no absolute truth. 00:12:11.060 --> 00:12:12.780 We can all have our own truth. 00:12:12.860 --> 00:12:13.940 This is my truth. 00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:16.360 Now tell me yours. 00:12:17.460 --> 00:12:21.100 But that's not the kind of world that God wants us to live in. 00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:23.940 That's not the kind of ideas that God wants us to have. 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:26.820 We need a strong foundation in life. 00:12:26.900 --> 00:12:28.480 And that is to be his truth. 00:12:29.640 --> 00:12:30.980 This is my truth. 00:12:31.680 --> 00:12:33.240 Full stop, God is saying. 00:12:33.920 --> 00:12:35.120 Now tell me yours. 00:12:35.980 --> 00:12:36.920 This is truth. 00:12:37.540 --> 00:12:39.900 And this is the truth that John is giving to us. 00:12:39.899 --> 00:12:42.019 This is that God is light. 00:12:42.659 --> 00:12:45.699 And in him is no darkness at all. 00:12:46.779 --> 00:12:49.360 And so we need this truth. 00:12:50.299 --> 00:12:53.019 We need that as the foundation of our lives. 00:12:53.179 --> 00:12:53.860 Of our church. 00:12:53.980 --> 00:12:54.539 Of our ministry. 00:12:54.659 --> 00:12:56.539 Of everything that we are doing. 00:12:57.639 --> 00:12:59.699 Every way that we seek to live. 00:13:00.139 --> 00:13:03.019 This is a truth we are to be standing on. 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:05.899 Because there is nowhere else to begin. 00:13:06.220 --> 00:13:07.899 When it comes to truth. 00:13:07.899 --> 00:13:09.699 Jesus himself. 00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:11.559 In the gospel of John. 00:13:12.079 --> 00:13:14.079 Chapter 8 says this to us. 00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:17.459 As he's saying there to the Jews who have believed. 00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:20.600 He said to the Jews who had believed in him. 00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:22.799 If you abide in my word. 00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:24.860 You are truly my disciples. 00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:27.399 And you will know the truth. 00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:30.259 And the truth will set you free. 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:33.720 There is a foundation of faith. 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:35.679 You will know the truth. 00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:38.979 And the truth will set you free. 00:13:40.739 --> 00:13:42.459 If we begin with ourselves. 00:13:43.500 --> 00:13:45.519 We will have a false confidence. 00:13:46.500 --> 00:13:49.099 Or if we look at ourselves. 00:13:49.199 --> 00:13:51.359 We can feel that sense of hopelessness. 00:13:51.359 --> 00:13:52.659 As we looked at recently. 00:13:53.199 --> 00:13:54.959 If we listen to world leaders. 00:13:55.620 --> 00:13:57.639 Those or those in the world who proclaim. 00:13:58.019 --> 00:13:59.279 To have found wisdom. 00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:01.959 If it is apart from God. 00:14:01.959 --> 00:14:03.579 And his truth it is nothing. 00:14:04.839 --> 00:14:07.299 John here begins with God. 00:14:08.220 --> 00:14:10.079 And God being light. 00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:14.480 In him is no darkness at all. 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.899 That's the very foundation of creation. 00:14:17.899 --> 00:14:21.759 When you look back to Genesis chapter 1. 00:14:22.439 --> 00:14:24.059 In the beginning God. 00:14:25.059 --> 00:14:26.000 That is the beginning. 00:14:26.539 --> 00:14:28.639 Of all things that we see around us. 00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:31.000 And in the beginning God made light. 00:14:31.459 --> 00:14:33.639 To shine into the darkness. 00:14:33.959 --> 00:14:36.220 That is how we came into being. 00:14:37.199 --> 00:14:39.100 And then when you look at the Lord Jesus Christ. 00:14:39.199 --> 00:14:42.019 You go to the beginning of the gospel of John. 00:14:42.079 --> 00:14:43.079 What does it say there? 00:14:43.980 --> 00:14:45.340 In the beginning again. 00:14:45.340 --> 00:14:47.560 In the beginning was the word. 00:14:48.139 --> 00:14:49.519 And the word was with God. 00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:51.080 And the word was God. 00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:53.600 So this is what was there at the beginning. 00:14:53.860 --> 00:14:54.879 Christ was there. 00:14:55.340 --> 00:14:56.720 In the beginning he was the word. 00:14:56.800 --> 00:14:58.060 And the word was with God. 00:14:58.740 --> 00:14:59.240 And then it says. 00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:00.780 And the word became flesh. 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:02.860 And dwelt among us. 00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:05.920 That is the wonder of the truth. 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:08.320 That we have before us. 00:15:09.220 --> 00:15:11.860 And what did Jesus say as he dwelt among us? 00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:14.139 Again in the gospel of John. 00:15:14.139 --> 00:15:14.379 And he said. 00:15:14.539 --> 00:15:16.779 I am the light of the world. 00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:18.259 Whoever follows me. 00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:19.879 Will not walk in darkness. 00:15:20.399 --> 00:15:23.220 But will have the light of life. 00:15:24.139 --> 00:15:25.600 The light of life. 00:15:27.460 --> 00:15:28.600 God is light. 00:15:29.179 --> 00:15:31.840 In him is no darkness at all. 00:15:32.100 --> 00:15:34.519 He is the source of life. 00:15:35.419 --> 00:15:36.840 And so we ask ourselves then. 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:38.179 Who is our God? 00:15:38.179 --> 00:15:40.740 Who is your God tonight? 00:15:40.740 --> 00:15:42.960 How do you view God? 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:46.379 Is he this infinite God? 00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:49.960 Infinite, eternal and unchangeable God. 00:15:50.100 --> 00:15:51.799 That we see in the scriptures. 00:15:53.019 --> 00:15:55.659 Or is he that God of your own making? 00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:57.539 Your own design? 00:15:58.680 --> 00:16:00.060 A God who you want to keep. 00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:02.279 In the confines of your own box. 00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:03.879 Of the way you want things. 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:07.279 There is another quote. 00:16:07.500 --> 00:16:10.480 It is attributed possibly to Voltaire. 00:16:10.539 --> 00:16:11.580 The French writer. 00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:13.399 But that is debated. 00:16:13.820 --> 00:16:14.679 But it says this. 00:16:14.740 --> 00:16:17.120 If God made man in his own image. 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.659 Then man has returned the compliment. 00:16:22.100 --> 00:16:23.120 What does it mean? 00:16:24.320 --> 00:16:26.759 Well God made us in his own image. 00:16:26.899 --> 00:16:28.940 That is what we see from the very beginning. 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:30.220 From the outset of Genesis. 00:16:30.220 --> 00:16:30.420 Genesis. 00:16:31.180 --> 00:16:33.340 But what you almost see from Genesis onwards. 00:16:33.580 --> 00:16:37.080 Is man making God in his image. 00:16:37.540 --> 00:16:37.960 In other words. 00:16:38.060 --> 00:16:40.639 Making God the way he wants. 00:16:41.160 --> 00:16:43.300 And we are all guilty of that at times. 00:16:43.700 --> 00:16:46.019 Making God into what we want. 00:16:46.660 --> 00:16:49.860 Not allowing God to make us into what he wants. 00:16:51.860 --> 00:16:53.420 And therefore what we see is. 00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:55.480 John is challenging this. 00:16:56.720 --> 00:16:58.440 He is saying you are not God. 00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:01.420 You cannot confine God. 00:17:01.520 --> 00:17:03.120 You cannot restrict God. 00:17:03.260 --> 00:17:04.779 Because God is light. 00:17:05.660 --> 00:17:09.259 And in him is no darkness at all. 00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:13.460 And this is the one we should desire that fellowship with. 00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:16.880 John is not here sharing speculation. 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:19.059 This is my truth. 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:21.000 Now tell me yours. 00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:24.480 He is pronouncing truth. 00:17:24.480 --> 00:17:27.980 It is with authority. 00:17:27.980 --> 00:17:30.960 The authority that has been given to him. 00:17:31.500 --> 00:17:32.559 In verse 3 here. 00:17:32.660 --> 00:17:34.319 That which we have seen and heard. 00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.200 We proclaim also to you. 00:17:37.259 --> 00:17:39.920 He is passing on this message. 00:17:40.019 --> 00:17:42.360 This message of authority. 00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:45.740 This message of truth. 00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:49.360 But the people were not listening. 00:17:50.460 --> 00:17:51.799 The people were not listening. 00:17:52.259 --> 00:17:53.420 That was the problem. 00:17:53.420 --> 00:17:56.580 They didn't accept this authority. 00:17:56.740 --> 00:18:00.300 They wouldn't accept Christ as an authority over them. 00:18:01.480 --> 00:18:03.400 The question for us is are we listening? 00:18:04.580 --> 00:18:05.500 Are we listening? 00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:07.240 Are we receiving this truth? 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:10.340 Are we seeing the authority that it has? 00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:11.620 That from the very beginning. 00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:14.279 God was word. 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:19.000 God became flesh in the person of Jesus Christ. 00:18:19.000 --> 00:18:19.279 Christ. 00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:23.420 An American preacher once put it across like this. 00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:28.059 When speaking of the Lord Jesus from the very beginning. 00:18:29.180 --> 00:18:33.000 He said Jesus was the only man who had a heavenly father. 00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:34.980 But no heavenly mother. 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:37.039 Who had an earthly mother. 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:39.240 But no earthly father. 00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:41.400 Who was older than his mother. 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.240 And who was as old as his father. 00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:50.440 He is there describing the very nature of God in the person of Jesus. 00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:53.200 How he was there from the beginning. 00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:55.660 How he is the one who has authority. 00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:58.779 How he is the one who is truth. 00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:01.079 God is light. 00:19:01.620 --> 00:19:04.539 In him there is no darkness at all. 00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:08.240 Without this light we fall into lies. 00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:13.799 And that is what then John goes on to warn of. 00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:15.420 The lies. 00:19:15.579 --> 00:19:16.579 The false claims. 00:19:17.099 --> 00:19:19.099 That we can so easily fall into. 00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:21.680 And we see that there are three here. 00:19:22.180 --> 00:19:24.299 The first in verse 6. 00:19:25.140 --> 00:19:27.299 If we say we have fellowship with him. 00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:29.259 While we walk in darkness. 00:19:29.620 --> 00:19:30.160 We lie. 00:19:30.819 --> 00:19:33.500 And do not practice the truth. 00:19:34.839 --> 00:19:36.140 What is he saying here? 00:19:36.140 --> 00:19:38.980 It is this idea that people have. 00:19:39.259 --> 00:19:39.920 In John's day. 00:19:40.600 --> 00:19:42.240 Have the neuron day as well. 00:19:42.300 --> 00:19:44.660 I can walk in both the light. 00:19:44.900 --> 00:19:47.220 And the darkness at the same time. 00:19:48.100 --> 00:19:50.500 That is a dangerous place to be. 00:19:51.460 --> 00:19:53.360 If he says. 00:19:53.900 --> 00:19:55.120 We have fellowship with him. 00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:56.580 While we walk in darkness. 00:19:56.960 --> 00:19:57.820 We lie. 00:19:58.780 --> 00:20:00.480 It is a serious thing. 00:20:01.360 --> 00:20:03.580 Can we have fellowship with God. 00:20:03.579 --> 00:20:06.199 And yet at the same time. 00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:07.399 Be known as walking. 00:20:07.699 --> 00:20:08.639 In the darkness. 00:20:08.899 --> 00:20:09.220 Walking. 00:20:09.919 --> 00:20:10.919 In untruth. 00:20:12.139 --> 00:20:13.220 It doesn't go. 00:20:14.399 --> 00:20:14.879 It is like. 00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:16.399 Having a dimmer switch. 00:20:16.399 --> 00:20:17.339 On our faith. 00:20:18.179 --> 00:20:18.939 A dimmer switch. 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:19.980 If you go into our room. 00:20:20.099 --> 00:20:21.279 And the dimmer switch. 00:20:21.379 --> 00:20:22.240 Is turned right up. 00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:23.419 The light is bright. 00:20:24.579 --> 00:20:25.539 The dimmer switch. 00:20:25.619 --> 00:20:26.419 Then if you turn it. 00:20:26.779 --> 00:20:27.779 Just makes the light. 00:20:27.879 --> 00:20:28.720 Go dimmer and dimmer. 00:20:28.759 --> 00:20:30.039 Until it is almost dark. 00:20:31.319 --> 00:20:32.399 It can be very handy. 00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:33.460 It can be very effective. 00:20:34.139 --> 00:20:35.399 If someone is coming to visit. 00:20:35.500 --> 00:20:35.839 You will say. 00:20:35.939 --> 00:20:37.139 Turn the dimmer switch down. 00:20:37.199 --> 00:20:38.279 So they don't see the dust. 00:20:38.379 --> 00:20:39.339 We will hide things. 00:20:39.539 --> 00:20:40.379 In the darkness. 00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:42.419 And that is a bit like. 00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:43.819 What this is suggesting. 00:20:43.819 --> 00:20:45.019 About our faith. 00:20:46.000 --> 00:20:47.119 That we are saying. 00:20:47.199 --> 00:20:48.919 That we have fellowship with God. 00:20:49.419 --> 00:20:50.980 But yet we are still trying to walk. 00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:51.699 In the darkness. 00:20:52.339 --> 00:20:53.960 It is like we are trying to hide things. 00:20:54.019 --> 00:20:54.639 In our life. 00:20:55.359 --> 00:20:56.199 The dimmer switch. 00:20:56.199 --> 00:20:57.079 Is being turned. 00:20:57.500 --> 00:20:57.980 Down. 00:20:59.879 --> 00:21:01.259 But there is a consequence. 00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:03.299 It says. 00:21:03.299 --> 00:21:04.720 You are a liar. 00:21:05.599 --> 00:21:06.680 If we say. 00:21:06.819 --> 00:21:07.960 We walk in darkness. 00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:09.660 We have fellowship with him. 00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:10.960 While we walk in darkness. 00:21:11.660 --> 00:21:12.140 We lie. 00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:13.460 And we do not practice. 00:21:13.819 --> 00:21:14.660 The truth. 00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:15.279 The truth. 00:21:15.819 --> 00:21:17.220 Is not in us. 00:21:18.099 --> 00:21:20.240 And the question that John is asking here is. 00:21:20.879 --> 00:21:23.039 What is our fellowship with God like? 00:21:23.879 --> 00:21:26.160 What is our walk with God like? 00:21:26.600 --> 00:21:28.060 Is it a fake fellowship? 00:21:29.220 --> 00:21:31.180 Is it one when we are just seeing. 00:21:31.600 --> 00:21:33.400 We are trying to walk with him. 00:21:34.259 --> 00:21:35.720 And yet at the same time. 00:21:36.080 --> 00:21:37.080 Walk in darkness. 00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:38.820 It cannot be done. 00:21:40.440 --> 00:21:42.860 It is no such thing as a Sunday Christian. 00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:45.040 You cannot live. 00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:47.120 Like a commandment. 00:21:47.220 --> 00:21:47.560 And say. 00:21:47.900 --> 00:21:49.920 Six days will I do what I want. 00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:51.800 And the seventh. 00:21:51.980 --> 00:21:52.860 I will keep holy. 00:21:53.460 --> 00:21:55.100 That is not how it works. 00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:58.279 A Christian is walking with God. 00:21:58.640 --> 00:21:59.640 Seven days. 00:21:59.820 --> 00:22:00.500 Constantly. 00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:03.960 You cannot have fellowship with God. 00:22:04.060 --> 00:22:04.720 And continue. 00:22:05.180 --> 00:22:07.040 In an unrepented sin. 00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:10.160 It cannot happen. 00:22:11.100 --> 00:22:11.960 There has to be. 00:22:12.300 --> 00:22:13.200 A contrast. 00:22:14.900 --> 00:22:16.640 You are either walking in the light. 00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:19.080 Or you are walking in darkness. 00:22:19.079 --> 00:22:22.759 There is beautiful weather outside today. 00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:24.299 And the forecast is great. 00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:25.799 For the week ahead. 00:22:25.859 --> 00:22:27.199 And we look forward to that. 00:22:29.099 --> 00:22:32.119 Next week I am sure there will be many people coming into the church. 00:22:32.220 --> 00:22:33.699 And your colour will have changed. 00:22:34.339 --> 00:22:35.419 You have been out in the sun. 00:22:36.299 --> 00:22:37.199 You have turned red. 00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:38.079 You have turned brown. 00:22:38.179 --> 00:22:39.339 Because you have been in the sun. 00:22:39.419 --> 00:22:40.819 You have been in the light. 00:22:40.819 --> 00:22:44.559 But if you claim as it was here. 00:22:45.059 --> 00:22:46.179 That you have been to the beach. 00:22:46.299 --> 00:22:47.720 That you have been in the sun all week. 00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:50.000 And there is no change. 00:22:50.159 --> 00:22:50.759 You are pale. 00:22:50.919 --> 00:22:51.439 People would ask. 00:22:51.539 --> 00:22:51.639 Well. 00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:52.619 How? 00:22:53.819 --> 00:22:55.119 The sun has not touched you. 00:22:55.159 --> 00:22:56.039 There is no change. 00:22:57.480 --> 00:22:59.460 It is the kind of thing that John is saying here. 00:22:59.460 --> 00:23:01.840 If you are walking in the light. 00:23:02.700 --> 00:23:03.539 There is a contrast. 00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:04.539 There is a difference. 00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:06.420 It leaves its mark. 00:23:07.700 --> 00:23:09.519 If you are not walking in the light. 00:23:09.620 --> 00:23:10.900 It leaves its mark as well. 00:23:10.980 --> 00:23:11.880 That will be seen. 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.180 It will be seen in how you are living. 00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:19.500 And so are we walking in the light? 00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:22.620 Or are we trying to say we can have both? 00:23:22.700 --> 00:23:23.480 You can't. 00:23:24.420 --> 00:23:25.579 It is a false claim. 00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:27.039 You are a liar. 00:23:27.180 --> 00:23:27.819 He says. 00:23:27.819 --> 00:23:31.179 And the truth is not in you. 00:23:32.299 --> 00:23:35.579 And you see the second false claim here in verse 8. 00:23:37.019 --> 00:23:39.079 If we say we have no sin. 00:23:39.779 --> 00:23:41.000 We deceive ourselves. 00:23:41.139 --> 00:23:43.700 And the truth is not in us. 00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:50.159 Again this is a claim that the false teachers were making to the people. 00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:53.240 Deceiving themselves and deceiving others. 00:23:53.240 --> 00:23:59.200 If we say that we have no sin. 00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:02.279 I cannot say that. 00:24:02.799 --> 00:24:04.120 No one can say that. 00:24:04.940 --> 00:24:06.220 Sin is a dangerous thing. 00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:07.819 Sin is a deadly thing. 00:24:08.819 --> 00:24:10.559 And if we say we have no sin. 00:24:10.779 --> 00:24:12.319 As it says here. 00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:14.420 We deceive ourselves. 00:24:15.059 --> 00:24:18.019 And the truth is not in us. 00:24:18.019 --> 00:24:19.079 We deceive ourselves. 00:24:20.740 --> 00:24:23.079 We are telling ourselves a lie. 00:24:24.259 --> 00:24:25.519 Not just lying to others. 00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:27.980 As in the first part here. 00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:29.779 But we are lying to ourselves. 00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:31.599 We deceive ourselves. 00:24:32.339 --> 00:24:34.440 We are living a very dangerous life. 00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:37.600 There was a lady in England. 00:24:38.259 --> 00:24:40.660 Who had an ornament on her mantelpiece. 00:24:41.140 --> 00:24:42.740 And was there for 30 years. 00:24:43.779 --> 00:24:45.080 And she kept it polished. 00:24:45.220 --> 00:24:46.140 She kept it nice. 00:24:47.080 --> 00:24:48.299 From time to time. 00:24:48.420 --> 00:24:50.279 When she had grandchildren visiting. 00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:52.559 She would take the ornament down off the mantelpiece. 00:24:52.620 --> 00:24:53.880 And let them play with it. 00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:56.280 Sometimes they would go out into the garden. 00:24:56.480 --> 00:24:58.460 And throw this thing to one another. 00:24:58.540 --> 00:24:59.800 They didn't know what it was. 00:25:01.120 --> 00:25:02.460 But it was just like a toy. 00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:05.540 Then after 30 years. 00:25:05.680 --> 00:25:07.120 She learned something about it. 00:25:08.220 --> 00:25:09.520 Something that startled her. 00:25:09.580 --> 00:25:10.480 Something that frightened her. 00:25:10.500 --> 00:25:11.080 It was a bomb. 00:25:12.460 --> 00:25:13.720 And for all these years. 00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:15.780 It had been sitting there on the mantelpiece. 00:25:15.840 --> 00:25:17.340 And the children and the grandchildren. 00:25:17.880 --> 00:25:18.900 Playing with it. 00:25:20.300 --> 00:25:21.440 Unaware of the danger. 00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.539 And that's the kind of thing. 00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:25.660 That we see here. 00:25:25.700 --> 00:25:27.420 If we say we have no sin. 00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:29.180 We deceive ourselves. 00:25:29.299 --> 00:25:30.820 We're playing with a bomb. 00:25:30.900 --> 00:25:32.380 That could go off at any time. 00:25:34.320 --> 00:25:35.740 And so John is saying. 00:25:35.940 --> 00:25:37.259 This is not to be you. 00:25:37.660 --> 00:25:38.259 The truth. 00:25:38.420 --> 00:25:38.920 The word. 00:25:39.519 --> 00:25:41.039 The truth is not in us. 00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:42.740 Then he says in verse 9. 00:25:42.740 --> 00:25:44.820 If we confess our sins. 00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:46.539 He is faithful. 00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:48.720 And just to forgive us our sins. 00:25:48.820 --> 00:25:49.740 And to cleanse us. 00:25:49.920 --> 00:25:50.880 From all. 00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:52.560 All unrighteousness. 00:25:53.400 --> 00:25:54.320 So he says. 00:25:54.440 --> 00:25:55.880 Don't be deceived. 00:25:56.600 --> 00:25:58.140 Don't deceive yourselves. 00:25:58.260 --> 00:25:59.740 It's not a case of saying no sin. 00:26:00.120 --> 00:26:01.300 It's a case of saying. 00:26:01.660 --> 00:26:02.640 Confess your sin. 00:26:03.620 --> 00:26:04.780 This is the only way. 00:26:04.860 --> 00:26:06.220 You're going to be right with God. 00:26:06.300 --> 00:26:07.200 This is the only way. 00:26:07.340 --> 00:26:09.240 You're going to walk in his light. 00:26:10.100 --> 00:26:11.560 Confess your sins. 00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:14.380 Why hide your sin from God. 00:26:14.540 --> 00:26:16.100 When he knows it anyway. 00:26:16.860 --> 00:26:17.920 And the beauty of it is. 00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:19.120 He is able to forgive. 00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:21.739 He is faithful to forgive. 00:26:21.739 --> 00:26:23.019 When we confess. 00:26:24.699 --> 00:26:26.139 He doesn't say. 00:26:26.379 --> 00:26:27.359 I might. 00:26:28.679 --> 00:26:28.979 He says. 00:26:29.059 --> 00:26:30.000 If you confess. 00:26:30.439 --> 00:26:32.759 He is faithful to forgive. 00:26:32.899 --> 00:26:33.239 Otherwise. 00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:34.979 He would be unfaithful. 00:26:35.459 --> 00:26:36.459 He would be unjust. 00:26:37.459 --> 00:26:39.000 But he is faithful. 00:26:39.399 --> 00:26:40.279 To forgive. 00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:41.460 And so you see. 00:26:41.859 --> 00:26:43.059 We cannot say. 00:26:44.019 --> 00:26:45.519 We have no sin. 00:26:46.180 --> 00:26:47.480 Because that is lying. 00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:48.779 To ourselves. 00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:50.500 So the first one is lying to others. 00:26:50.619 --> 00:26:52.259 Second one is lying to ourselves. 00:26:52.779 --> 00:26:54.200 And then we have the third claim. 00:26:54.299 --> 00:26:55.059 In verse 10. 00:26:55.059 --> 00:26:57.240 If we say. 00:26:57.419 --> 00:26:58.559 We have not sinned. 00:26:58.940 --> 00:27:00.579 We make him a liar. 00:27:01.119 --> 00:27:02.319 And his word. 00:27:02.639 --> 00:27:03.980 Is not in us. 00:27:04.059 --> 00:27:04.359 You see. 00:27:04.440 --> 00:27:06.079 They're getting more and more serious. 00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:08.319 If we say. 00:27:08.480 --> 00:27:09.679 We have not sinned. 00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:12.980 Not just that we have no sin. 00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:14.119 Now. 00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:14.700 It's not like. 00:27:14.819 --> 00:27:15.740 Things have changed. 00:27:16.179 --> 00:27:17.799 But we have not sinned. 00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:18.960 We've never sinned. 00:27:19.019 --> 00:27:20.700 This is another false truth. 00:27:20.899 --> 00:27:23.240 That the people were being led astray by. 00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:25.579 We have not sinned. 00:27:26.900 --> 00:27:27.980 Well if we say this. 00:27:28.099 --> 00:27:28.420 It's not. 00:27:28.720 --> 00:27:30.099 We lie to others. 00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:30.700 It's not. 00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:32.480 We lie to ourselves. 00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:33.539 What does it say? 00:27:33.620 --> 00:27:35.120 We make him a liar. 00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:38.420 We make him a liar. 00:27:39.359 --> 00:27:40.480 And the word. 00:27:41.200 --> 00:27:42.660 Is not in us. 00:27:42.779 --> 00:27:43.220 So you see. 00:27:43.380 --> 00:27:45.680 The three are linked by lies. 00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:47.500 You lie. 00:27:47.940 --> 00:27:48.900 To others. 00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:50.079 You lie to yourself. 00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:51.759 Or you make him a liar. 00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.000 But you see also. 00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:54.039 The three are linked. 00:27:54.339 --> 00:27:55.279 To the word. 00:27:56.420 --> 00:27:57.460 In verse six. 00:27:57.579 --> 00:27:58.180 If we have. 00:28:00.500 --> 00:28:01.339 Fellowship with him. 00:28:01.500 --> 00:28:02.559 While we walk in darkness. 00:28:02.740 --> 00:28:03.200 We lie. 00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:05.680 And do not practice the truth. 00:28:05.799 --> 00:28:07.240 The word is not in us. 00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:08.839 You see the same. 00:28:09.379 --> 00:28:10.220 In verse eight. 00:28:10.299 --> 00:28:10.819 If we say. 00:28:10.980 --> 00:28:11.700 We have no sin. 00:28:11.779 --> 00:28:12.879 We deceive ourselves. 00:28:13.059 --> 00:28:14.019 We lie to ourselves.
