16
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which does not lead to death, he will ask, and He will give him life for those who commit sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should pray about that.
17
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death.
18
We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.
19
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.
20
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
21
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
