John is making it very clear to us that the important thing is that Jesus Christ is who He claimed to be. That’s important, my friends. John was sure of who the Lord Jesus was. John could say this: “The Word became flesh and pitched his tent among us, and we beheld his glory, the glory of the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” John had indubitable, indestructible, inevitable evidence that Jesus was who He claimed to be. John knew that. And that is something you and I need to be a little more sure of today.
