I John for Dummies

Well, "I John" is a phrase that might seem a little confusing at first, but I'm here to help you understand it! Don't worry, we'll take it step by step and make sure you feel confident about it. So, let's dive right in! First of all, "I John" is a way to talk about a book in the Bible. The Bible is a really important book that many people believe has teachings and stories that can guide our lives. And guess what? The Bible is not just one big book but is made up of many different books, each with its own special name.

Now, when we say "I John," we're referring to one of the books within the Bible called "First John." Just like you have your own name, this book also has a name, but it's just called "First John" or sometimes "1 John" for short. Think of it as a book written by a person named John, and the "First" tells us that it's the first book he wrote that made it into the Bible. Isn't that interesting?

Now, let's take a moment to understand what this book is all about. "First John" is a letter written by the Apostle John, who was a very close friend of Jesus. The letter is full of advice, teachings, and encouragement for people who believed in Jesus. It talks about how to live a life of love, how to be kind to others, and how to follow the teachings of Jesus. John wanted to help people become better versions of themselves, just like a coach who wants their team to succeed!

So, when you hear someone mention "I John," they could be talking about this special book in the Bible called "First John." It's a way for them to refer to that specific book without saying the whole name. It's like when your friends use a nickname for you instead of saying your full name. It's just a shorter way to talk about something.

Now, remember, learning and understanding new things takes time, and it's absolutely okay if it feels a bit overwhelming at first. Just take your time, ask questions, and keep exploring. You're doing great, and I'm here to support you every step of the way!
