Sæktu forritiðPeople of Light, People of Darkness: The Last Apostle | 1 John 2:18-27Sýnishorn
Here we get to the heart of it. Believers once unified in Christ have split. John writes, “They went out from us” (1 John 2:19). The pain of watching someone you love reject you, is immense. It is with God, too. John will tease out some of the reasons they left, but it doesn’t change the fact that leaving hurts. John doesn’t mince words. He calls them “antichrists.” They didn’t just leave a church. They left Christ. So John encourages us, “See that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you” (1 John 2:24).
