1st John
Many scholars now believe that John’s three letters were
actually the last books written in the Bible. After John had
returned from Patmos (where he reviewed the Revelation) he
wrote his gospel, in part to be an intentional rebuttal to
the gnostic herasy being banded about saying that Jesus
wasn’t really God. In his gospel John destroys that false
doctrine. Probably by now back at Ephesus, where he was the
pastor, John continus his defense of the faith with his
first letter. John starts by reminding his readers he was an
eyewitness, and then proceeds to give us seven contrasts:
1) Light vs. Darkness
2) The Father vs. The World
3) Christ vs. Antichrist
4) Good works vs. Evil works
5) Holy Spirit vs. the spirit of error
6) Love vs. pious pretence
7) Those born of God vs. all others
In conclusion John states his reason for writing: “These
things have I written unto you that believe on the name of
the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life,
and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”
(5:13)
