1 John 3:9-11
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
9 Everyone having been born[a] from God is not doing sin— because His seed[b] is abiding in him, and he is not able to be sinning[c] because he has been born from God. 10 By this, the children of God and the children of the devil are evident.
Abiding Means Loving In Deed And Truth, As Jesus Commanded Us
Everyone not doing[d] righteousness is not from God— and the one not loving his brother! 11 Because this is the message which you heard from the beginning: that we should be loving one another.
