1 John 3:1; 1 John 3:4; 1 John 3:9

1 John 3:1

1 See what great 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.

1 John 3:4

4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.

1 John 3:9

9 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.
