Walk In The Light
That
which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our
eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched —this we proclaim
concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and
testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the
Father and has appeared to us. We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you
also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and
with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to make our joy complete.
This
is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him
there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the
darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as
he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of
Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
If
we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is
faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all
unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and
his word is not in us.

We can only be totally
clean when we accept Jesus as our Savior. He can and will wash our sins away.
Accepting Jesus has to happen in our hearts. From there our actions will speak.
Confess your sins. He
is faithful and will forgive our sins and He will cleanse us from all
unrighteousness.
We can’t cleanse our
own hearts; only God can do that. If we confess our sins to Him, He promises to
make us completely and totally clean.
Confession
to God always brings cleansing from God.
