1 John 3:5-8 And you know that he appeared to take away our sins, and in him there is no sin.

Common⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ And you know that he appeared to take away our sins, and in him there is no sin. ⁶ No one who abides in him sins. No one who sins has either seen him or known him. ⁷ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who does right is righteous, just as he is righteous. ⁸ He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.
