1 John 3:8-9
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
8 Everyone who commits sin is a child of the devil; for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was revealed for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. 9 Those who have been born of God do not sin, because God’s seed abides in them;[a] they cannot sin, because they have been born of God.
