reference: 1 John 3:8

text: he that doeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.


reference: 1 John 3:9

text: Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.


text: In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.


text: For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another:


text: not as Cain was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous.


text: Marvel not, brethren, if the world hateth you.


text: We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death.


text: Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.


text: Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.


text: But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him?


text: My little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.


text: Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:


text: because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.


text: Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God;


text: and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.


text: And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment.


text: And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
