Standing in the Light
This is the message we have heard and declared unto you:
"God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we havve fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." 1 John 1:5-7
What do we, my Beloved, in secret, in private? What do we, that we tell not or share not with our brethren in the Light. Those secret things we do, unwilling to share with our brethren are done in darkness. Open thy life to the Light that those things may be seen for what they are--SIN--which once again plunges thee into darkness.
"Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." Galatians 5:1
Jesus Christ is the Light that came into the world. Search out the Light and live in the Light.
Beloved, these things I write unto thee that thee sin not. If thee says thee knows and lives by that Light (Jesus Christ) who came to save us but do not live according to he Light, thee is a liar and the truth is not in thee.
Beloved, this is nothing new - hereby we do know that we know Him (the Light) ifwe live in obedience to Him. Love not the world, neither the thing that are in the world. If thee love the world, the love of the Father is not in thee. For all that is in the world, lust of the flesh (which is personal gratification through what thee eats, drinks, or takes into thy body) lust of the eyes (which is those things of the world we see around us which we desire or covet) and the pride of life (which is worldly ambition, but can also be a form of spiritual ambition.) Al this is not of the Father. Flee from all this and seek the Light, in order to wlak in the Light, no longer in darkness, held captive by thy sins.
Let that therefore abide in thee which thee has heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
These things have I written to thee concerning them that seduce you. But the annointing which ye received of him (the Light) abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same annointing teacheth you of all things and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him (who is the Spirit of Truth).
And now Beloved, abide in Him that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at His coming. 1 John 2:26-29
