Thursday Devo Scripture Reading: 1 John 1 8 If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. 9 But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts. 8 If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. 9 But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. 10 If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts. Commentary from the ESV Study Bible: 1:8 have no sin. we deceive ourselves. The devil (3:8) or the world (2:15) may contribute to human straying, but in the end each individual bears responsibility for his or her own sin. Some sin remains in every Christian’s life (“have,” present tense), even that of the elderly apostle John (“we”). 1:9 Christians must confess (their) sins, initially to receive salvation and then to maintain fellowship with God and with one another (v. 3). faithful and just to forgive. God is “slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression” (Num. Yet John also makes it clear (1 John 3:6, 9) that persistent unrepented sin is not the mark of a Christian—God “will by no means clear the guilty” (Num. 1:10 have not sinned. his word is not in us. A person may have heard and assented to the gospel message, but until it brings him to acknowledge his sin, it has not taken root. 1:9 Christians must confess (their) sins, initially to receive salvation and then to maintain fellowship with God and with one another (v. 3). faithful and just to forgive.

Study Questions: - After we get mad at our sin, we need to confess it to God, repent and run to the cross. The cross is what keeps the temporal consequences from becoming permanent, eternal ones. We should run to Jesus and confess our sin because he is faithful and just to forgive. At the cross, Jesus shamed our enemy by defeating him. Sin is forgiven as God's wrath and mercy meet at the cross. And it's all because of his love for us. The refrain of the cross, the line that gets repeated over and over, is that Jesus saves! His love is unfailing. Is there any sin that you need to confess? Like the prodigal son, do you need to run back to God? What is he speaking to you? - As the commentary states, persistent, unrepented sin is NOT the mark of a Christian. 1 John 3:6 says, "Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is." It is important for followers of Jesus to listen to the convicting voice of the Holy Spirit that is within them. When we ignore his voice and continue in our sinful ways we are walking down a dangerous road. Do you still sense the Spirit's conviction in your life? What is your response? Do you ignore it or repent? Pray: - That you would live a life of repentance. - That you would stay sensitive to the Spirit's leading and conviction. This Week's City 7: Try to commit to memory! How can I trust that the Bible is still God’s Word today? I trust the Bible is still God’s Word today because Jesus rose from the dead proving He was God and said His words would never pass away. Through the Holy Spirit, God inspired the writing of the Scripture, determined the canon of Scripture and protected the copying of Scripture so that we might know Him and worship Him to this day.

1 यूहन्ना अध्याय 1 हामी अब तिमीहरुलाई संसारको सृष्टि अघिबाट जे अस्तित्वमा थियो त्यस विषयमा भन्छौंहामीले यो सुन्यौं हामीले आफ्नै आँखाले देख्यौं, हामीले हेर्यौं यो, हामीले हाम्रा हातले स्पर्श ग्यौं।हामी तिमीहरुलाई त्यो वचनको बारेमा भन्दैछौ जसले जीवन प्रदान गर्छ। 2 त्यो जीवन हामीमा देखापरेको छ। हामीले त्यसलाई देख्यौं। हामी यस बारे तिमीहरुलाई प्रमाण दिन सक्छौं। अब हामी तिमीहरुलाई त्यो जीवनको विषयमा भनी रहेका छौं। यो त्यो जीवन हो जो चिरस्थायी छ। यो त्यो जीवन हो जो परमेश्वर पितासित थियो अनि हाम्रो अघि देखा पर्यो। 3 अब हामी तिमीहरुलाई हामीले देखेका अनि सुनेको कुराहरु भन्छौं। किनभने हामी चाहन्छौ कि हामीसित तिमीहरुको सङ्गति रहोस्। सङ्गति जो हामी एक साथ सहभोग गर्छौ त्यो पिता परमेश्वर अनि उनको पुत्र येशू ख्रीष्टसित हुन्छ। 4 हामी तिमीहरुलाई यी कुराहरु लेखिरहेकाछौं जसद्वारा तिमीहरु आनन्दले परिपूर्ण हुन सक्नेछौ। 5 हामीले परमेश्वरबाट साँचो सन्देश सुन्यौं। अब हामी यो तिमीहरुलाई भनिरहेकाछौं कि परमेश्वर ज्योति हुनुहुन्छ। परमेश्वरमा अन्धकार हुँदैन। 6 यसर्थ, यदि हामी परमेश्वरसित हाम्रो सङ्गति भएको दावी गर्छौं, तर हामी अन्धकारमा बस्छौं भने हामी झूटो हौ, हामी सत्यको अनुसरण गरिरहेका छैनौ। 7 परमेश्वर ज्योतिमा रहनु हुन्छ। हामी पनि ज्योतिमा बस्नुपर्छ। यदि हामी ज्योतिमा बस्यौं भने हामी एक अर्कोमा सङ्गतिको सहभागी हुन्छौ। अनि जब हामी ज्योतिमा बस्छौं, येशूको रगतले हामीलाई सम्पूर्ण पापबाट धुन्छ। 8 यदि हामी, हामीमा पाप छैन भन्छौ भने हामीले स्वयंलाई धोका दिइरहेछौ, अनि हामीमा सत्य छैन। 9 तर यदि हामी हाम्रा पापहरु स्वीकार गर्छौ तब परमेश्वर जो विश्वासयोग्य अनि धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ हाम्रा पापहरु अनि हामीले गरेको जम्मै गल्तीहरु क्षमा गर्नुहुनेछ। परमेश्वरमा जे उचित छ त्यही गर्नुहुन्छ। 10 यदि हामी भन्छौ, हामीले पाप गरेका छैनौं तब हामीले परमेश्वरलाई झूटो बनाउँछौ। यसैले देखाँउछ कि हाम्रो हृदयमा परमेश्वरको साँचो सन्देश राखेका छैनौं।
