1 John 3:2-5

2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth* also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
