He is light and we are in the darkness!<br />

1 John 1:8 -<br />

1 John 1:10 -<br />

make plain that we are sinners by nature and by practice. That is, we have a sinful,<br />

fallen nature, verse 8, and commit acts <strong>of</strong> sin, verse 10.<br />

No one is sinless in this life - these verses declare this and experience confirms it.<br />

Only One has ever lived without sin.<br />

Hebrews 7:26 -<br />

The rest <strong>of</strong> us are sinful.<br />

1 Kings 8:46 -<br />

Ecclesiastes 7:20 -<br />

Romans 3:20 -<br />

Romans 3:23 -<br />

How can a holy God have fellowship with us who are so sinful<br />

4. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY.<br />

That way is through the Person and work <strong>of</strong> God’s Son, Who came to earth and shed<br />

His blood to provide salvation for all who would put their trust in Him.<br />

In 1 John 3:5 -<br />

we are told why Jesus came from heaven to earth.<br />

In 1 John 1:7 -<br />

we are told that, when we come into the light <strong>of</strong> God’s presence, acknowledging our<br />

sin, He removes the barrier <strong>of</strong> sin and we have fellowship ‘one with another’. That is,<br />

with God (the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit), and with all believers.<br />

But how is our sin dealt with and removed<br />

By ‘the blood <strong>of</strong> Jesus Christ God’s Son’.<br />
