Andrew and Edwin recognize John's teaching about confession and forgiveness does not give permission to sin. John tells us not to sin. However, he gives us a plan if we do sin.

1 John 1 (NKJV)
Andrew and Edwin discuss the apostles' joy. Or maybe it's the joy of John's audience. They discuss some issues about manuscripts and evidences. But then they get to the really important question. John demonstrates what should give us great joy. Our hosts ask us to consider what gives us joy.

1 John 1 (ESV)
Andrew and Edwin consider how amazing it is that John even wrote this sermon. After all, when he declared the gospel of Jesus, it didn't go all that great for him and his friends. But, they clung to their story with the tenacity of someone convinced they were telling the truth.

John 21: 15-19 (ESV)
Andrew and Edwin consider how odd Jesus's recruitment speech for Peter is: follow me and you'll die a horrific, painful, awful death. Yet it works. Our hosts consider what is really going on in this recruitment speech and why it fills Peter with reassurance, confidence, and hope.

Andrew and Edwin recognize when Jesus restored Peter, He didn't just dust him off and let him have  a seat at the table, He gave Peter a role. They recognize when we are restored, we have work to do. Jesus doesn't just have a place for us, He has an active place for us.

Andrew and Edwin discuss the really hard part about the gospel. And yet, it is absolutely, utterly, and in all other ways important. We must not skip past this part. We aren't happy to say it. But we do rejoice God was will to go through it. Jesus, at the end of John 19, is dead--really, truly, completely dead.
