约翰⼀书 1:7 我们若在光明中⾏，如同神在光明中，就彼此相交，祂⼉⼦耶稣的⾎也洗净我们⼀切的罪。(现代标点和合本)
1John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. (NKJV)
许多基督徒说你必须“照着”光而⾏，因为如果你失败了，你 就会回到⿊暗中。然而，圣经告诉我们⾏在“光中”。当你相 信耶稣基督的那⼀刻起，你的⽣命就被照亮了，你已经⾏走在光明中。经上记着说，⼀旦你成为神的⼉⼥，就没有⼈能把你从祂⼿中夺去。你可能是⼀只顽⽪的⽺，但牧⽺⼈总能找到他的⽺。你可以是⼀个浪⼦，但天⽗永远敞开家⻔等你回家。祂总不撇下你，也不离弃你。我们若在光明中⾏，如同神在光明中，就彼此相交，祂⼉⼦耶稣的⾎也洗净我们⼀切的罪。 “洗净”这个词指的是⼀直持续不断的洗净，意思是耶稣的宝 ⾎在你⽣命中的每⼀天不断地洗涤你的⽣命。你可能会犯错， 但这⼀切都被祂的宝⾎洗净了。你不需要承认每⼀个罪。你真的能为你犯下的每⼀个错误认罪吗？圣经说不信也是罪，甚⾄不相信神对我们的好也是罪。因此你不能为⽣活中的每⼀个过错来认罪。只要你如同祂⼀样⾏在光明中，你就已经洁净了。 让我们看看耶稣的宝⾎如何说到更美之约。
Many Christians say you must walk “according” to the light, because if you fail, you will return into darkness. However, the bible tells us to “walk in” the light. The moment you become a Christian, the light is switched on. You are already walking in the realm of light. The bible says that once you become a Christian, nobody can snatch you out of His hand. You might be a naughty sheep but the shepherd can always find his sheep. You might be a prodigal son but the Father always has His doors opened for you to come home. He will never leave you nor forsake you. As we walk in the light, the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sins. The word “cleanses” is continuous meaning the blood of Jesus is continually cleansing you, every day of your life. You may make a mistake but it is cleansed by His blood. You do not need to confess every single sin. Think about it. Can you really confess every wrongdoings you commit? The bible even says that unbelief is a sin, such as not believing that God is good to us is also a sin. Therefore, you are unable to confess every single wrongdoings in your life, but as long as you walk in the light (Jesus is the light), you are already cleansed. Let us see how the blood of Jesus speaks of a better covenant.
