Do you want to see what God sees?

A careful study of 1 John reveals how we can live in the same light God does.

God is never confused. He never misreads situations. He always knows exactly what is going on and what to do about it.

And He invites us to live in His light, to see things the way He does.

We just have to follow the directions to His light. He revealed how to get there in 1 John, and it's probably not what you'd expect.

All you have to do is remain in fellowship with all believers.

A simple yet challenging instruction. Because you have to learn the agape way of handling conflict and disagreements.

As soon as we step away from any aspect of the love described in 1 Corinthians 13, we step outside of the light.

Without the light, we make bad judgments that lead to bad decisions. We never know the full picture without God's light.

And God's light requires that we remain in fellowship with each other.

Biblical fellowship is not a potluck. It's a covenant partnership where you commit to stand with each other no matter what comes.

If one has a problem, we work it out together. If one has a victory, we rejoice together.

God's love doesn't bail when things get tough. It shines for all to see and be amazed at something that makes no sense to this world.
