1 John 3:5-7

Contemporary English Version

^5 (A) You know Christ came to take away our sins. He isn't sinful, ⁶ and people who stay one in their hearts with him won't keep on sinning. If they do keep on sinning, they don't know Christ, and they have never seen him.

⁷ Children, don't be fooled. Anyone who does right is good, just like Christ himself.
