“But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” (1 John 1:7, NKJV)

Light stands for God’s realm of truth, righteousness, purity, joy, ineffable glory. Darkness stands for this world of error, evil, ignorance, and wickedness—the realm of the lost. In a more real and literal sense, light may be an attribute of God beyond the understanding of human eyes.

Although the life God gives believers is eternal, the fellowship that believers have with him can be broken because of sin. If we think we can sin as we please and still have fellowship with God, we are mistaken. But if we are careful to live righteously, we will enjoy unbroken fellowship with God and fellow believers.

God sees that we are living he wants us to, and he graciously forgives those sins that we commit unknowingly.
