No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God.

For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
