That Ye May Have Fellowship with Us and with God

  1. Read 1 John 1:1–4.
  2. He wants us to recognize and find the way toward fellowship. To seek the connection between us and God and understand that connection.
    • 1 John 1:8–10 Admit that we sin and ask for repentance
    • 1 John 2:3–6 Follow the commandments and walk in the light
    • 1 John 2:9–11; 3:11–19 Love everyone and want them to want in the light with them
    • 1 John 2:15–17 Love and strive for the kingdom of god and leave the world away
    • 1 John 2:20–21, 27 Seek for truth
    • 1 John 3:4–6 Don’t sin
  3. Choose one of the ways to greater joy and fellowship with God as you described it above and write a paragraph explaining how you can better implement those principles in your life.
    • Love and strive for the kingdom of god and leave the world away
    • Our eternal destiny is to inherit the kingdom of God, but we must be faithful to him or else his inheritance disappears. Our inheritance is earned through our hard work and pushing away the world and everything that keeps us away.
