1 John 3:4

4 Each man that doeth sin, doeth also wickedness, and sin is wickedness.

1 John 3:4 In-Context

2 Most dear brethren, now we be the sons of God, and yet it appeared not, what we shall be. We know, that when he shall appear, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
3 And each man that hath this hope in him, maketh himself holy, as [and] he is holy.
4 Each man that doeth sin, doeth also wickedness, and sin is wickedness.
5 And ye know, that he appeared to do away sins, and sin is not in him.
6 Each man that dwelleth in him, sinneth not; and each that sinneth, seeth not him, neither knew him.
