Have you ever stood in great need of comfort and encouragement? If so, you know that in time of affliction, there is no thought or word that has deeper meaning, nor any possession of greater value, than that of effective and genuine comfort. The objective of this study is to equip us to have the assurance that there is comfort available, and to know how to be comforted, as well as how to be a comfort to others in the fires of affliction.

John wrote his first epistle to counter the Gnostics - some of whom denied the Deity or even the humanity of Jesus Christ. He wrote to assure his readers of their eternal security and their joy in fellowship (1Jo 5:13 1Jo 1:3 1Jo 1:4)
