The Call Of The Faithful
1 John was written to those “who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that [they might] know that [they] have eternal life” (1 John 5:13). By repeatedly cycling through the essential truths of Christianity, John, with increasingly deeper and broader disclosure, fortified his people against the assaults of the false teachers and reassured them that they possessed eternal life. First John thus spirals through the biblical balance of truth, obedience, and love.
