Living as Children of God:

             Everyone who sins is breaking God's law,for all sin contrary to the law of God.And you know that Jesus came to take away our sins,and there is no sin in him.Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin.But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is.

            When people do what is right,it shows that they are righteous,even as Christ is righteous.But when people keep on sinning,it shows that they belong to the devil,who has been sinning since the beginning.But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil.

           Those who have been born in God's family do not make a practice of sinning,because God's life is in them.So they can't keep on sinning,because they are the children of God.So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of devil.Anyone who doesn't live righteously and doesn't love other believers does not belong to God.

            So finally we can understood that God's children will not practice sin but once he sinned his heart get broken and he will return to Christ with the broken-hearted and thereafter he will make every steps to get out of that sin.

         We know that God's children do not make a practice of sinning for God's son holds them securely and the evil one cannot touch them.We know that we are the children of God and that the world around us under the control of the evil one.

            And we know that  the Son of God has come and he has given us understanding so that we can know the true God.And now we can live in fellowship with true God by having fellowship with his son,Jesus Christ.He is the only true God and he is the eternal life.

Living in the Light

               God is Light,and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light,then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

                                 
               If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that His word has no place in our hearts.

               But if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the One who is truly righteous. He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins-and not only our sins but the sins of the world.

               And we can be sure that we know Him if we obey His commandments. If someone claims,"I know God," but doesn't obey God's commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. But those who obey God's word truly show how completely they love him.That is how we know we are living in Him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.
