To Make Our Joy Complete

Back to 1 John 1 again...
Verse 3 - We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us.  And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
Verse 4 - We write this to make our joy complete.

What is making their "joy complete"?
Is it that they know the truth?
Is it that in proclaiming, they will have fellowship with others?
Is it in proclaiming that their fellowship is with the Father and His Son?

I think that they have seen the Word of life, who appeared to them from the Father (this is Jesus Christ), and that in SHARING what they have seen, causing others to hear and believe the truth, their joy is complete.
Our joy is complete when we know the truth and share it with others who believe the message.

I can tell you there is no greater joy than in seeing someone come to faith in Jesus Christ.  I am joyful in my relationship with Him, but my joy is "complete" when someone else believes in Him!

There is an anniversary approaching.  On Sunday, June 12th, it will be one year since my precious daughter Abigail surrendered her life to Jesus Christ.
In that, my joy is complete!

Happy Anniversary, my girl.  I love you very much!!

Solve This Mystery...

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched - this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.
The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us.
We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us.  And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ,
We write this to make our joy complete.

Who or what is the "Word of life"?

Even though this "mystery" is simple to solve, it is the most important "mystery" that exists.
Do you know the Word of life?
