Bible Note: Hi Tim, I go with the NASB for 1 John 5:18. I wonder what your input would be for 1 John 3:9. Could it be interpreted with another "He is born of God"? 1 John 3:9, No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin because He [sic] is born of God. This suggests to me the contrast between 1 John 3:10 and 1 John 5:19. 1 John 3:10, "...anyone who does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor the one who does not love his brother." 1 John 5:19, "We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one." We are "of God" when we practice what He tells us. From the heart, Ray |
