What We Know

1 John 5:18 NIV: We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them. AMP: We know [absolutely] that anyone born of God does not [deliberately and knowingly] practice committing sin, but the One Who was begotten of God carefully watches over and protects him [Christ's divine presence within him preserves him against the evil], and the wicked one does not lay hold (get a grip) on him or touch [him]. NLT: We know that those who have become part of God's family do not make a practice of sinning, for God's Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot get his hands on them.
