Walk in Truth

This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you. God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin. If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts. 1 John 1:5-10 NLT

Run from darkness if we expect to live fully in the light! True fellowship with God is far from possible when spiritual darkness prevails in our circumstances. More importantly, we could be confined to solitaire and still be without the darkness of evil influences. The closer we are to God the larger His light casts a shadow over that darkness. The further we move from the shadow, the more we see truth. No one can walk in truth without having first been forgiveness of their sins. Also our hearts are purer to experience the love of God.
