AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 3:11 ¶ For this is the message which you [believers] have heard from the beginning [of your relationship with Christ], that we should [unselfishly] love and seek the best for one another; |
Bible Question: When was the beginning referred to in the passage? |
Bible Answer: Greetings gr121635! "3:11 from the beginning. Since the beginning of gospel proclamation, love has been a central theme of Christianity. John emphasizes what they heard "from the beginning" (1:1; 2:7,24) to emphasize that the false teachers were preventing that which God, through the apostles, proclaimed." (1) I hope that this helps!
