I Am Writing To You 

(1Jn 2:12-17) 



God is the God of revelation (Jn 1:1, Jn 1:14). 

He reveals Himself according to the way He decided before the creation of the world, and 

He reveals Himself in the same way to those who receive the word of His revelation. 



Faith is knowing Him, and 

The life of this faith is experiencing the written word in one's life, and overcoming. 



The Bible is called "the Holy Bible or "the Holy scripture as it is the holy writing. 

Its writers, time of writing, purpose, application etc. are 

Entirely different from the books in the world. 

What is especially different is that 

Its original copy has been kept in heaven before the creation (Ps 139:16; Rev 5:1), and that 

The written events are continually taking place to this day (Mk 16:17). 



The writing of the OId Testament began with 

Moses according to God's directions (Ex 17:14; Dt 31:24). 

Its contents are the Pentateuch, the Chronicles, the Psalms and the Prophetic Books. 



The sanctuary which God commanded the Israelites to build with 

The stone tablets inside the Ark of the Testimony 

Reminded them that God revealed to them, albeit indirectly, through the word. 



Jesus said, "Destroy this temple and I will raise it again in three days (Jn 2:19), because 

Through the death and the resurrection of the temple of His body, 

He would fully reveal the Father for 

He is the incarnate Word who was with the Father in the beginning (Jn 1:1, Jn 1:14, Jn 1:18) 

The very nature God in the flesh (Php 2:6). 

Accordingly, His entire life was applied to the written word: 

His conception, birth, dwelling, traveling, works, words, suffering, death etc. 

 (Mt 1:22-23, Mt 2:1, Mt 2:14-15, Mt 4:4-10, Mt 13:14, Mt 13:18, Mt 26:24). 



In the final moment of His death, 

Jesus said, "I am thirsty (Jn 19:28), and 

Fulfilled the scriptures, strengthening the authority of the writing. 



Furthermore, He said, "It is finished (Jn 19:30), declaring that He: 

1. Laid down His life and fulfilled the Father's word, giving glory to Him (Ge 2:17, Ge 3:15; Jn 10:17-18); 

2. Condemned the devil who challenged the word (Ge 3:5; 1Jn 3:8); and 

3. Became a ransom for those deceived by lies (Ge 3:4-5; Mt 20:28). 

He rose and ascended to heaven, and 

He is the Lamb on the throne (Rev 5:6). 



The Holy Spirit comes in the name Yeshua and 

Lets believers understand the written word and live according to it. 



The purpose of studying the Bible is eternal life (Jn 5:39), and 

Its content is about (1Jn 2:12-17): 

1. The forgiveness of sin; 

2. The Father in heaven; and 

3. The power to overcome the spiritual warfare. 

The man of the Spirit has 

Through the Lamb, Jesus the scroll opened 

At the right hand of Him who sits on the throne (Rev 5:1-9). 

Therefore, for he knows that the Day of Judgment is near (Rev 1:3) 

He puts every effort to live according to what is written and overcomes, for 

He longs to finally stand before the One on the throne in that day. 



O Lord, 

For such a long time 

My soul was in a deep sleep and my eyes were sealed to Your book (Is 29:10-12). 

But now that my soul has woken up from this sleep, and 

I can see heaven through this written book! 

I can see the One on the throne! 

Lord, 

Let me live according to the written word, and 

In that day let me stand before You. 

Amen.
