Possible Outline A. Introduction. Ch 1 v1-4 The revelation of the word of life (Jesus Christ) who appeared “in the beginning”. (v1 “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard…we proclaim to you.) B. God is Light. Ch 1 v5 – 3 v10 God is light & like Jesus we must walk in his light. C. God is Love. Ch 3 v11 - 5 v12 God is love and those who know him must love one another. (v11 For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.) D. Epilogue. 5 v13 - 21 The author explains his purpose.

The Introduction – verses 1-4 1What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we saw and our hands touched, - concerning the word of life – (2and the life appeared and we have seen and testify, and announce to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was revealed to us); 3what we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you.”

The “subject-verb-object” structure of a sentence: “Steve, the pastor of our church, preached a very short sermon to our congregation last Sunday, who were stunned.”

First Letter of John chapter 1 v1-4 (NLT) We proclaim to you the one who existed from the beginning, whom we have heard and seen. We saw him with our own eyes and touched him with our own hands. He is the Word of life. 2 This one who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that he is the one who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then he was revealed to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 4 We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy (that our joy may be complete).
