I WRITE TO YOU

April 10, 2009

Letters, emails, even twitter--it comes to us for a purpose. When John wrote his letter he had a purpose, and it includes you and me.

 I am writing to you, dear children,
I am writing to you fathers,
I am writing to you young people,
- 1 John 2:12-14 Excerpts TNIV
 
"Because your sins have been forgiven."
"Because you know him who is from the beginning."
"Because you have overcome the evil one."
"Because you know the Father."
"Because you know him who is from the beginning."
"Because you are strong and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one."

John writes a love letter to these people, and to us, to people pursuing God, but who can get easily distracted. John gives us a reminder of the foundation on which we stand: Jesus Christ.
Joyfully,

Dale Patterson
