1 John 1:2 "(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)"
This sermon, Life Was Manifested, from Pastor J.D. Montieth teaches what he considers the most important topic he has preached on in his 40 years of ministry; instructing men on how fellowship with God and Jesus Christ can be found:
“1 John is a book of fellowship, instructing men on how fellowship with God and Jesus Christ can be found. As such, its initial verses focus on the Son of God and the eternal life of God that He manifested to men. It teaches us that the only way men can gain eternal life and enter into both present and eternal fellowship with God is through His Son. It is only through faith and then obedience to the Son of God that true fellowship with God can be gained.
“For men to have fellowship with God, Jesus, God’s Son, must be revealed, believed in, relied on, and obeyed. The Father and Son are one, so none can rightfully claim fellowship with the Father who neglect the Son and His ministry to men. The true Gospel of God has as its center fellowship with the Son of God. Thus, the apostle opens his writing with a focus on He Whom God sent to reveal His own eternal life to men.”
