1 John 1:4 meaning and explanation
We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
1 John 1:4, Berean Standard Bible

The author is the elder John, writing to a community he loves, some of whom were unsettled by teachers denying that Christ truly came in the flesh. Having just insisted that he and his companions heard, saw and touched the Word of life, he explains his purpose in writing: not to burden them but to complete a shared joy.
