0:00.0	Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:12.6	If you're doing our New Testament plan, we finished book number 24, and if you're doing the whole Bible, we finished book 63.
0:19.3	This letter is anonymous, but the author's writing style
0:22.1	and content is super similar to what we see in the Gospel of John and the books of second and
0:26.4	third John, so the general consensus is that they're all written by the same guy, though there is

1:16.1	And that makes it easy to build community with others who are walking in the light.
1:19.7	We can even confess our sins in the light and it actually serves to enrich our unity.
1:24.7	Whereas darkness and hiding and lying thwarts healthy community.
1:28.8	That's not to say sinning isn't a big deal, it is.
1:32.0	But Christ advocates for us to the Father, because He has already made atonement for our sins.
