  • Rev. Autrey on 1 John 1 - 11 years ago
    (Verse 9) "But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from every wrong." But who is the "him" in this verse. It is not the Father or the Holy Spirit. It is Jesus, himself, the personality through whom God speaks to us.

    Here is the point. It is the law that points out our sins. But it is Jesus who takes them away. This is what John meant when he said of Jesus, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world."

    Those who try to take away their own sins are on a disappointing dead end. They are trying to do something that the Bible says they can never do. Paul said that it is because we are sold unto sin ( Romans 7) and compelled to do it because of who we are. In any case, Paul concluded that the only solution in in Jesus, and his ability to free us.
