¶1 John 1. 6. 8. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walke in darknesse, we lye, and doe not the truth. If we say we have no sinne, we deceive our selves, and the truth is not in us.
¶Chap. 3. Verse 3. And every man that hath this hope in him, purifieth himself, even as he is pure. Vers. 4. 5, 6, 7, 8. Whosoever committeth sin, transgresseth also the Law, for sin is the transgression of the Law. And ye know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in him is no sin; Whosoever abideth in him, sinneth not. Whosoever sinneth, hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you; He that doth righteousness, is righteous; He that committeth sin is of the Devil, for the Devil sinneth from the beginning; for this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the Devil.
