The Invitation

Get to know God through the book of 1 John.  The fabric of 1 John is made up of keywords that are like threads which run throughout the book.  Below are three simple steps that can have a profound impact. 

1. Read.
Try reading one chapter a day, five days a week and while you read, focus on one keyword throughout the week.

2. Pray.
Praise and thank God for what this chapter says about Him. Confess sins.  Ask God to bring this Scripture back to our minds through the day.

3. Write.
Get the most out of your reading by writing down what you learn from each chapter. You can do this on your own or online at faithon44th.com/study where you can also see what other people are gleaning.

Keyword of the Week
The word sin is used 27 times (ESV) in 1 John and appears in all five chapters.  

* What does 1 John say about people who keep on sinning? 

* In 1 John, what is God's solution for sin?

* What else do you learn about sin from 1 John?
