: '''Abstract''': The issue in this article is to what extent people in this postmodern era can know the real meaning about the nature of Jesus of Nazareth. In his First Epistle John answers three questions concerning this problem. How do we know that Jesus is the Son of God? How are we personally related to this extraordinary truth that Jesus of Nazareth is the Son of God? In what way should this personal relationship enter the life of those who are born again? By explaining the work of the Holy Spirit John indicates that there is a close interaction between the doctrine of Jesus the Son of God and the spiritual life of believers. | : '''Abstract''': The issue in this article is to what extent people in this postmodern era can know the real meaning about the nature of Jesus of Nazareth.

: '''Abstract''': For believers to have fellowship (koinwniva) with one another and corporately with God, is one of the main objectives stated for the proclamation of the gospel by the author of 1 John. This article investigates the intermediation and environment through which and in which fellowship is constituted between God and his children. From the prooemium (1:1-4) of the epistle, which is used as the basic text in this research, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has been designated (as iJlasmov~ in 2:2; 4:10 and as paravklhto~ in 2:1) to accomplish a fundamental revelatory-salvific act to enable believers to have fellowship with God and one another. This concept of fellowship, used in a familial sense, is described from the symbolic narrative of family life where God is the “Father” (patrov"), Jesus is “his only Son” (uiJov~ aujtou` oJ monogenhv~) and believers are the “children of God” (tevkna qeou`). 1 John underlines the autonomy of the individual child of God (2:20, 27; 5:20), but qualifies this emphasis with the thematic development of the concept of fellowship (koinwniva in 1:3, 6, 7) with other believers in the familia dei. The joy of believers in this familia dei, as an outcome of this fellowship, only becomes “complete” (peplhrwmevnh) where fellowship is constituted both among God’s children and corporately with God. | |||
