1 John 2:29-1 John 3:10 - Children Of God

29 If ye know that he is righteous, know also that all that work righteousness, are born of him.

1 Behold what love the father hath showed on us, that we should be called the sons of God. For this cause the world knoweth you not; because it knoweth not him. 2 Dearly beloved, now are we the sons of God, and yet it doth not appear what we shall be. But we know that when it 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, purgeth himself, even as he is pure.

4 All that commit sin, committeth unrighteousness also, for sin is unrighteousness. 5 And ye know that he appeared to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. 6 All that abide in him, sin not: And all that sin hath not seen him, neither hath known him.

7 Little children, let no man beguile you; He that worketh righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth since the beginning. But for this cause appeared the son of God, even to destroy the works of the devil. 9 All that are born of God do no sin, for his seed abideth in them, and they cannot sin, because they be born of God. 10 And hereby are the sons of God known, and also the sons of the devil. All that work not righteousness, are not of God, nor he that loveth not his brother.
