1 John 3:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ Those who live in Christ don’t go on sinning. Those who go on sinning haven’t seen or known Christ.

⁷ Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you. Whoever does what God approves of has God’s approval as Christ has God’s approval. ⁸ The person who lives a sinful life belongs to the devil, because the devil has been committing sin since the beginning. The reason that the Son of God appeared was to destroy what the devil does.
