John has said some world-changing and people-changing things about God future now at work in our present drawing us on to that great day when we shall finally see Jesus as he fully is and find ourselves more like him than we currently know.
To really try and grab your full attention and bring home all of the truth about who Jesus is and what he is doing in this anti-messiah world, this anti-messiah human heart we all share and against the fallen Anti-Messiah himself, John now stages a courtroom scene and calls upon three witnesses to testify to all that he has been proclaiming.
The three witnesses are water, blood and Spirit and they are called to firm you up in his three foundational ways of living in this new era of Jesus: faith, love and obedience.
May you be re-affirmed and re-confirmed in who you are, in how you have come to be who you are and what you are to be and to do in the life of love you have been gifted and called into, by the love of God lavished upon you in Jesus the Son of God in human flesh and blood for the life of the world.
