1 John 1:5-7

v5: The Lord Jesus has made known to us that God is light. He has revealed to us “the holiness of God, the absolute purity of his nature and will, his penetrating knowledge - especially of hearts - and his jealousy and justice, which burn most brightly and vehemently.” This message about God “is one we should gladly receive,” and lead to us walking in the light.

v6: If someone claims to know God, but then walks in darkness by living lives that are “irreligious, immoral, and impure,” they show that their profession is false.

v7: “Jesus Christ has shed his blood for us; he has died to wash us from our sins in his own blood. When his blood is applied to us, it releases us from the guilt of all sin, both original and actual, inherent and committed, and we stand righteous in his sight.” Our response: Jesus, thank you.
