The Propitiation for the Sins of the World
John uses this phrase “my little children” often in his epistle. It communicates two things very clearly: 1) It is a term of endearment: he loves them like a father loves his children 2) But it also communicates a certain authority: he expects them to obey him like children obey their father. When I say to my children, “Children,” they know both that I love them, and that I expect them to obey. Why did John write this epistle to his spiritual children? He gives us three reasons in the opening dozen verses: “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us (1:3) “We write this to make our joy complete (1:4) “I write this to you, so that you will not sin (2:1) And he gives us one final reason at the end: “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that that you have eternal life (5:21) These reason all swirl around the general theme of assurance. John is writing to encourage and exhort the church to abide in Christ.
