Jesus Came To Destroy the Work of the Devil - 1 John 3: 4-10

There's many who practice lawlessness so full of sinning that the devil reigns but Jesus appeared to remove our sins for sinless He is showing no stains The test of our faith is in Jesus Christ for abiding in Christ shows us no sin being clothed in Jesus righteousness alone knowing Jesus means we don't sin for to win Practise righteousness to show righteousness as little children be sure not be deceived for the devil loves to draw us into sin but Christ came to rescue those that believe God's seed dwells within every believer working within making sure in Him we abide so we being born of God stop sinning in the practise of it for His seed works within This evidence shows we're a child of God those of the devil would sin evermore the difference lies within each one's heart for the righteous love the saviour more ("Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's[b] seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. 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, nor is the one who does not love his brother.") 1 John 3: 4-10 (ESV)
