1 John 2:28-1 John 3:10 - God's Children

28 And now, little children, remain in him; that, when he be manifested, we might have freedom of speech, that we be not shamed from him in his presence. 29 If ye know that he is just, ye know that every one doing justice has been born of him.

1 See ye, what kind of love the Father has given us, that we should be called the children of God: for this the world knows us not, for it knew him not. 2 Dearly beloved, now are we the children of God, and it has not yet been manifested what we shall be: and we know that, if he be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 3 And every one having this hope in him purifies himself, as he himself is pure.

4 Every one doing sin also does lawlessness; for sin is lawlessness. 5 And ye know that he was manifested that he might let go our sins; and in him is no sin. 6 Every one remaining in him sins not: every one sinning has not seen him, nor known him.

7 Little children, let none deceive you: he doing justice is just, as he is just. 8 He doing sin is of the accuser; for the accuser sins from the beginning. For this was the Son of God manifested, that he might loose the works of the accuser. 9 Every one born of God does not sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, for he has been born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the accuser: every one not doing justice is not of God, and he not loving his brother.
