1 John 1:10
_ _ Parallel to 1 John 1:8.
_ _ we have not sinned — referring to the commission of actual sins, even after regeneration and conversion; whereas in 1 John 1:8, “we have no sin,” refers to the present GUILT remaining (until cleansed) from the actual sins committed, and to the SIN of our corrupt old nature still adhering to us. The perfect “have ... sinned” brings down the commission of sins to the present time, not merely sins committed before, but since, conversion.
_ _ we make him a liar — a gradation; 1 John 1:6, “we lie”; 1 John 1:8, “we deceive ourselves”; worst of all, “we make Him a liar,” by denying His word that all men are sinners (compare 1 John 5:10).
_ _ his word is not in us — “His word,” which is “the truth” (1 John 1:8), accuses us truly; by denying it we drive it from our hearts (compare John 5:38). Our rejection of “His word” in respect to our being sinners, implies as the consequence our rejection of His word and will revealed in the law and Gospel as a whole; for these throughout rest on the fact that we have sinned, and have sin. |
1 John 1:10
Yet still we are to retain, even to our lives' end, a deep sense of our past sins. Still if we say, we have not sinned, we make him a liar — Who saith, all have sinned. And his word is not in us — We do not receive it; we give it no place in our hearts. |
1 John 1:10
(7) If we say that we have not sinned, we make him (i) a liar, and his (k) word is not in us.
(7) A repeat of the former verse, in which he condemned all of sin without exception: so much so that if any man persuade himself otherwise, he does as much as in him lies, make the word of God himself useless and to no effect, yes, he makes God a liar: for to why in times past did we need sacrifices, or now Christ and the gospel, if we are not sinners?
(i) They do not only deceive themselves but are blasphemous against God.
(k) His doctrine shall have no place in us; that is, in our hearts. |
