As we connect with God and are impacted by him, he sends us to connect and impact others with the gospel. 1 John is notoriously difficult to outline because the same themes seem to appear and reappear in different ways and with different connections. Many contemporary commentators have followed Robert Law in seeing three tests that lead to John’s purpose of confidence in salvation. Truth – the doctrinal test, love – the relational test, & obedience – the life test.

John and all followers of Jesus have been impacted by God and that impact manifests itself in our lives by radically transforming how we understand truth, how we are loved and love others and how we are shaped and live under the word of god.
