5 And you know that he appeared in order that he might take away our sins. For in him there is no sin.
6 Everyone who abides in him does not sin. For whoever sins has not seen him, and has not known him.
7 Little sons, let no one deceive you. Whoever does justice is just, even as he also is just.
8 Whoever commits sin is of the devil. For the devil sins from the beginning. For this reason, the Son of God appeared, so that he might eradicate the works of the devil.
9 All those who have been born of God do not commit sin. For the offspring of God abides in them, and he is not able to sin, because he was born of God.
