Authentic Christianity

Years ago Coca-Cola developed a new slogan to advertise their product and it was simply, the real thing. Their research showed that people were hungry for genuineness.
​Well, the one who is true, wants His followers to be the real thing so that he can have fellowship with us and so that we can attract others to him. This first chapter of the Book of 1 John contains the theme that runs through the book, and that is the need for truth and authenticity.
1 John 5:20 summarizes the intent of John at the end of the book.
We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true-even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
