1John 3:1 Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of.(*).God; therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not..(?)

1John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God and it does not yet appear what we shall be. But we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him for we shall see him as he is.

1John 3:2.Let's look at the word for word original and paraphrase the verse so it makes sense.

1John 3:3 And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he.(Christ).is pure.

1John 3:4 Whosoever commits sin transgresses also the law. For sin is the transgression of the law.

1John 3:4 Whosoever commits.(original 'bring forth').sin.(and one can bring forth sin by thinking that there is a spiritual standard in relating to God, a standard of rules and regulations apart from the law of love, so when he measures himself by the rule and regulations standard, he sees he did not quite measure up, examples: one believes that he should keep the ancient Saturday Sabbath day and perhaps also be tithing, but fails to do so properly according to what his church has dictated that he willy-nilly accepted:.Acts 17:11).transgresses also the.(word 'the' not in original).law, for sin is the transgression of law.(saying that sin {which is 'missing the mark'} is such because of law)..(?).(?)

1John 3:5 And you know that he was manifested to take away our sins and in him is no sin.

1John 3:5 And you know that he was manifested to take away our sins and in him.is no sin.(or 'through Him', meaning, aligned with His nature of love is being in the consciousness of away from any sin, because harmony cannot exist with inharmony; you are with His nature {*} if you love).

1John 3:6 Whosoever abides in him sins not. Whosoever sins has not seen him, neither known him.

1John 3:6 Whosoever abides.(is in alignment with the nature of love God has).in him sins not.(or as the original has it 'cannot sin', because He has abolished all sin for all time {Romans 4:17}, sin now only exists in the minds of religious people who still need rules and regulations to live by, where regulations to these people are more important than the law of love and this was similar to how the Pharisees in the time of Emmanuel on Earth also thought:.Matthew 12:1-12). Whosoever sins has not seen him, neither known him.

Information on 1John 3:2,3.

1John 3:7 Little children, let no man deceive you. He that does.righteousness is righteous, even as he.(God).is righteous.

1John 3:8 He that commits sin is of the devil, for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

1John 3:8 He that commits sin.(what the words 'sin, sins' really mean and it doesn't mean being bad, but rather of evil).is of the devil, for the devil sins from the beginning.(?). For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy.(or, as the original can also be rendered 'loosed' or 'released us', 'freed us' from being influenced by the dark side, verse 10).the works of the devil.

John 8:44.

1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin, for his seed remains in him. And he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

1John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin.(on word 'sin' see verse 8 above), for his seed.(original Greek is 'sperma', that from which life is generated).remains in him.(that is, if you are growing from Him, how can you miss the mark? you can't!). And he cannot sin, because he is born of God..(?)

What does."his seed remains in him".mean?

And all of the 'missing the mark' for all time has been taken care of by the blood of the One who gave his life for all.

Explanation of this verse continues.

1John 3:10 In this the children of God are manifest.(Matthew 7:16-20).and the children of the devil. Whosoever does not righteousness.(righteousness is not what many think that it is).is not of God and not of the love that cares for his brother.

Matthew 22:36-40.

1John 3:11 For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

1John 3:12 Not as Cain.(Genesis 4:1-12; Hebrews 11:4), who was of that wicked one.(that is, the dark side, the satanic ones, the beginning of the genetically modified ones called 'mankind', still with us today but being eliminated; who are they? Christ said."You'll know them by their fruits":.Matthew 7:16-20; so what have we seen in the world attributable to these evil ones? note, Cain was not of the same character as Abel, apparently because when Eve was pregnant, those beings of the satanic side did some kind of genetic alteration on her in order to produce one of their own wicked satanic kind; Cain did not have the same loving character Abel was born with).and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil and his brother's righteous.(one's works were good, the other's evil; jealousy).

Cain wasn't of a pure heart (what's that mean?) and didn't heartfully care for the things of God, the spiritually good side, instead didn't want to be good like his brother and saw a way to divide and conquer, so he eliminated his brother. And so today we have the 'divide and conquer' mentality of those like Cain, the communist cabal.

2Corinthians 10:12.

1John 3:14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loves not his brother abides in death.

Most, not all, of the mankind ones can not be classed as 'brothers and sisters'. Why Not all?

1John 3:15 Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

John 15:17.

1John 3:16.Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

1John 3:16.Hereby perceive.(original is 'to learn', 'knowledge grounded on personal experience':.Hebrews 6:1; *, that's why we need life here).we the love of God.(since God is this thing called love {*}, when we learn love, we learn God), because he laid down his life for us and we ought to lay down our lives.(how?).for the brethren.

And just who is your brother or sister?

Care for those needing caring by helping them in any way you are able to:.James 4:14 "Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour that appears for a little time and then vanishes away."

1John 3:17 But whoso has this world's good and sees.(original denotes {indicates}, 'of one who looks at a thing with interest and for a purpose').his brother have need and shuts up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwells the love of God in him?

1John 3:18.My little children let us not love in word.(the words or concepts we may live our lives by).neither in tongue.(what we talk to others about), but in deed and in truth.

James 2:15-18.

1John 3:19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth and shall assure.(original is."persuade", that is, are you comfortable in your mind with it? so how do you persuade your own heart?).our hearts before him.

1John 3:20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things.(knows all about it).

As humans we must realize that, as the great apostle.Paul had, we too have contradictory natures:.Romans 7:5-25. That is, until this time:.1Corinthians 15:28.

1John 3:21 Beloved if our heart condemn us not, then we have confidence toward God.

Negative attitudes held onto sap our confidence.

2Chronicles 19:11.

1John 3:22 And whatsoever we ask we receive of him because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

1John 3:22 And whatsoever we ask we receive of him because we keep his commandments.(what commandments are talked about here? the Old Testament physical rules and regulations are gone, yet the spiritual components of them remain forever, because they are of love and love is forever because God IS love:.1John 4:7-16).and do those things that are pleasing in his sight..(and Christ did what was pleasing in Creator-Father's sight ?)

In order to ask for something, you have a desire for it, so asking is the same as desiring, when it comes to wanting from God.

1John 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Emmanuel the Christ and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

1John 3:24 And he that keeps his commandments.(no plural in original and fits better with this verse anyhow; see the two verses just above).dwells in him and he in him. And hereby we know that he abides.in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.
