I shared with you that Hebrews through Revelation is known as the Jewish Literature Section of the Bible. As we go through the Jewish literature, it becomes more intense the further we get into the Jewish literature section. Hebrews was pretty general. James started to become more specific. 1 Peter was pretty intense and urgent.
But now as we get into 1 John, we're going to get into a book that many pastors like to stay out of because John presents not only the true doctrine of Jesus Christ for his day, but he also provides a checklist if you will, a series of tests where a person can know whether they're really saved or not.
And John is not "wishy-washy." He doesn't present any gray areas. He's considered to be a polemic writer, very controversial. He wouldn't be somebody that you would want to invite to your church to speak because he's not going to mince words. He's going to give his presentation and say here's the truth, and you can say that you are saved, but if you don't measure up to the truth then you're not saved. It's as simple as that!
And so, these letters become more and more intense, ending up with the book of Revelation which is very intense, the judgment of God.
