While the letter of First John is relatively short in length, it is anything but short on depth. Just five chapters long, it is one of the most theologically rich books in the entire New Testament. And for that reason, we are going to take our time working our way through it. While this is not intended to be a verse by verse study, you will find that we are going to spend a bit more time digging into each chapter, so that we can better understand all that John is trying to say.
