Immorality is inudating the Christian community and gradually eroding the foundations of Christian living. The truth of God incarnate, the atonement and the bodily resurrection of Christ are under attack-even from within the church.These are the concerns of Christians today, and they were the problems that faced the Christians of Johns day. In a society that scorned the gospel and sneered at godly living, John encouraged Christians with a message forged from two words-truth and love.In this contemporary retelling of Johns message, David Jackman describes Johns first letter as an upwardly spiraling staircase that circles and broadens out around the twin themes of truth and love, mind and heart, Word and Spirit. It is a message both timeless and timely for the church today.
