To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.1 John 3:9 · ἁμαρτίανWhosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.1 John 4:10 · ἁμαρτιῶνHerein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.1 John 5:16 · ἁμαρτίαν · ἁμαρτίαIf any man see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for them that sin not unto death.
