4\u00c2\u00a0Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.
\n5\u00c2\u00a0You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin.
\n6\u00c2\u00a0No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.
\n7\u00c2\u00a0Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous.
\n8\u00c2\u00a0Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.
\n9\u00c2\u00a0No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God\u2019s seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God.
\n10\u00c2\u00a0By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. <\/p>\n
