1 John 3:1-4

1BeholdG3708 what manner ofG4217 loveG26 theG3588 FatherG3962 has givenG1325 to usG1473, thatG2443 we should be calledG2564 childrenG5043 of GodG2316. AndG2532 that is what we areG1510! The reasonG1223G3778 theG3588 worldG2889 does not knowG3756G1097 usG1473 is thatG3754 it did not knowG3756G1097 HimG846. 2BelovedG27, we areG1510 nowG3568 childrenG5043 of GodG2316, andG2532 whatG5101 we will beG1510 has not yetG3768 been revealedG5319. We knowG1492 thatG3754 whenG1437 Christ appearsG5319,1 we will beG1510 likeG3664 HimG846, forG3754 we will seeG3708 HimG846 asG2531 He isG1510. 3AndG2532 everyoneG3956 whoG3588 hasG2192 thisG3778 hopeG1680 inG1909 HimG846 purifiesG48 himselfG1438, just asG2531 Christ isG1510 pureG53.2

4EveryoneG3956 whoG3588 practicesG4160 sinG266 practicesG4160 lawlessnessG458 as wellG2532. IndeedG2532, sinG266 isG1510 lawlessnessG458.3
