1 John 3:9-10

Children of God

⁹ _s No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's ₁ seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God. ¹⁰ By 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, _t nor is the one who _u does not love his brother.
