God's Children Keep Themselves Pure

John continues to warn us. You will not hear this from the ear tickling preachers  Brothers and sisters, they are deceiving untold thousands. They sound so good, but they will not tell you that if you practice (continue) in sin, you belong to the evil one. It does not matter if you said a "sinner's prayer" or were baptized or were told that you are under grace. You must turn from your sin and follow Jesus, or you will die a child of the devil and go to where he will go, the lake of fire.

I plead with you to turn from your sin and follow Jesus. He paid the price for sin on the cross where he willingly took the wrath of his Father to pay for sin. Jesus is the only way to the Father. If you sin, confess it and turn away from your sin and follow Jesus. Continued sinning is a sign you do not know God, as God's children keep themselves pure. Do not stop following Jesus. This life is just a vapor and then eternity in heaven or hell. Do not reject God who loved the world and gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him would not perish, but have everlasting life. Those who believe in him do not keep on sinning.  
1 John 3 ISV

1See what kind of love the Father has given us: We are called God’s children—and that is what we are!a For this reason the world does not recognize us, because it did not recognize him, either.

2Dear friends, we are now God’s children, but what we will be like has not been revealed yet. We know that when the Messiahb is revealed, we will be like him, because we will see him as he is. 

• 3And everyone who has this hope based on him keeps himself pure, just as the Messiahc is pure. 
• 4Everyone who keeps living in sin also practices disobedience. In fact, sin is disobedience. 
• 5You know that the Messiahd was revealed to take away sins,e and there is not any sin in him. 
• 6No one who remains in union with him keeps on sinning. 
• The one who keeps on sinning hasn’t seen him or known him.

7Little children, don’t let anyone deceive you. 

• The person who practices righteousness is righteous, just as the Messiahf is righteous. 
• 8The person who practices sin belongs to the evil one, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. 
• The reason that the Son of God was revealed was to destroy what the devil has been doing. 
• 9No one who has been born from God practices sin, because God’sg seed abides in him. 
• Indeed, he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born from God. 
• 10This is how God’s children and the devil’s children are distinguished.h 
• No person who fails to practice righteousness and to love his brother is from God.
