1 Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the children of God; and we are. And on this account the world does not know us, because it did not know him. 2 Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it is not yet manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he may be made manifest, we shall be like him; because we shall see him as he is. 3 Indeed every one having this hope on him purifies himself, even as he is pure. 4 Every one doing sin does also a transgression of the law: and sin is the transgression of the law. 5 And you know that he was manifested that he might take away sins; and in him there is no sin. 1 John 3:1-5, Godbey New Testament.
