1 John 5:18

← 1 John 5:17	1 John 5:18 (KJV)	1 John 5:19 →
All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.	We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.	[And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
