1 John 3:7

7Little children, alet no one deceive you. bWhoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous.

1 John 3:9-10

9 cNo one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s
Greek his
seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God.
10By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, enor is the one who fdoes not love his brother.
