1 John 3:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

Children of God Love One Another

3 See ^[a](A)how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called ^(B)children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because ^(C)it did not know Him. ^2 (D)Beloved, now we are ^(E)children of God, and ^(F)it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He ^(G)appears, we will be ^(H)like Him, because we will ^(I)see Him just as He is. ³ And everyone who has this ^(J)hope fixed on Him ^(K)purifies himself, just as He is pure.
