Love & Light 02 | Walk in the Light | 1 John 1:5-2:6Continuing the series on John’s letters, Pastor Seye explained that God is the Father of light and in Him is no darkness. He is the perfect light and does not change in degree of brightness. He is just, loving, and true, with no injustice, hatred, or inconsistency. As the source of all light, He remains unchanging in His perfection. John calls us to fellowship with this Christ so revealed, aligning with His desires. Hence, if we fellowship with Him, we cannot walk in darkness. Walking in darkness is not the absence of sin, but the embrace of sin. Those who fellowship with Him cannot embrace a lifestyle of sin, though they may stumble. In walking in the light, the blood of Jesus is available to cleanse us from subsequent sins, the basis on which we are being sanctified. We participate in the sanctifying work of the blood by confessing our sins. Though forgiven, we can still face restorative judgment to keep us from being condemned with the world. Confessing our sins and asking for forgiveness acknowledges our forgiveness, not denies it.Walking in the light means pursuing obedience, where sin becomes an occasional “if,” not an inevitable “when.” John’s core message is to walk as Christ walked, pursuing holiness and sanctification. Confessing sins is not a license to sin but a call to live in obedience, reflecting Christ’s light in our lives.
