<span class="verse" id="V1">1 </span>See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him. <span class="verse" id="V2">2 </span>Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. But we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is. <span class="verse" id="V3">3 </span>Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure. <span class="verse" id="V4">4 </span>Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness. <span class="verse" id="V5">5 </span>You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and in him is no sin. <span class="verse" id="V6">6 </span>Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him. </div><div class='p'> <span class="verse" id="V7">7 </span>Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous. <span class="verse" id="V8">8 </span>He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil. <span class="verse" id="V9">9 </span>Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him; and he can’t sin, because he is born of God. <span class="verse" id="V10">10 </span>In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother. <span class="verse" id="V11">11 </span>For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another; <span class="verse" id="V12">12 </span>unlike Cain, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous. </div><div class='p'> <span class="verse" id="V13">13 </span>Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you. <span class="verse" id="V14">14 </span>We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death. <span class="verse" id="V15">15 </span>Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. </div><div class='p'> <span class="verse" id="V16">16 </span>By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. <span class="verse" id="V17">17 </span>But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him? <span class="verse" id="V18">18 </span>My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth. <span class="verse" id="V19">19 </span>And by this we know that we are of the truth, and persuade our hearts before him, <span class="verse" id="V20">20 </span>because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. <span class="verse" id="V21">21 </span>Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God; <span class="verse" id="V22">22 </span>and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. <span class="verse" id="V23">23 </span>This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded. <span class="verse" id="V24">24 </span>He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us. </div><ul class='tnav'>
