Thanks for the bible scripture. But maybe 1st John is talking about spiritual light or darkness or spiritual life or death.
And up earlier in First John chapt 2 God tells us that Jesus Christ takes care of all that for us.
Or perhaps he is simply talking about sin, which would make sense since that is a central theme of the epistle.
And up earlier in First John chapt 2 God tells us that Jesus Christ takes care of all that for us.
And then LATER, John goes further in his explanation about the forgiveness of sin.
You illustrate PRECISELY what Peter warned about in 2 Peter 3:15-16.
How can you know anything scripturally if you have to use the word "maybe" when parsing a verse?
