John 3:1-10
How
great is the love the Father has Lavished on us,
That
we should be called Children of God!
And
that is what we are!
THE
REASON THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW US
IS
THAT IT DID NOT KNOW HIM.
2
Dear Friends, now we are Children of God,
And
what we will be has not yet been made known.
BUT
WE KNOW THAT WHEN HE APPEARS,
WE
WILL BE LIKE HIM,
FOR
WE SHALL SEE HIM AS HE IS.
3
EVERYONE WHO HAS THIS HOPE IN HIM
PURIFIES
HIMSELF, JUST AS HE IS PURE.
4
Everyone who Sins breaks the Law;
In
fact, Sin is Lawlessness.
5
But you know that He appeared
So
that He might take away our Sins.
AND
IN HIM IS NO SIN.
6
NO ONE WHO LIVES IN HIM KEEPS ON SINNING.
NO
ONE WHO CONTINUES TO SIN
HAS
EITHER SEEN HIM OR KNOWN HIM.
7
Dear Children, do not let anyone lead you Astray.
He
who does what is Right is Righteous,
Just
as He is Righteous.
8
HE WHO DOES WHAT IS SINFUL IS OF THE DEVIL,
BECAUSE
THE DEVIL HAS BEEN SINNING FROM THE BEGINNING.
THE
REASON THE SON OF GOD APPEARED
WAS
TO DESTROY THE DEVIL'S WORK.
9
NO ONE WHO IS BORN OF GOD WILL CONTINUE TO SIN,
BECAUSE
GOD'S SEED REMAINS IN HIM;
HE
CANNOT GO ON SINNING BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD.
10
This is how we know who the Children of God are
And
who the children of the Devil are:
ANYONE
WHO DOES NOT DO WHAT IS RIGHT
IS
NOT A CHILD OF GOD;
Neither
is anyone who does not love his brother.
(1
John 3:1-10)
