2 Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is. RV1885 — 1John 3:2
3 And every one that hath this hope set on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. RV1885 — 1John 3:3
4 Every one that doeth sin doeth also lawlessness: and sin is lawlessness. RV1885 — 1John 3:4
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin. RV1885 — 1John 3:5
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither knoweth him. RV1885 — 1John 3:6
7 My little children, let no man lead you astray: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous: RV1885 — 1John 3:7

9 Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God. RV1885 — 1John 3:9

11 For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another: RV1885 — 1John 3:11

13 Marvel not, brethren, if the world hateth you. RV1885 — 1John 3:13
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death. RV1885 — 1John 3:14
15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. RV1885 — 1John 3:15
16 Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. RV1885 — 1John 3:16
17 But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him? RV1885 — 1John 3:17
18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth. RV1885 — 1John 3:18
19 Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him, RV1885 — 1John 3:19
20 whereinsoever our heart condemn us; because God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. RV1885 — 1John 3:20
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; RV1885 — 1John 3:21
22 and whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. RV1885 — 1John 3:22
23 And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment. RV1885 — 1John 3:23
24 And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us. RV1885 — 1John 3:24
