Conclusion
18 We know that everyone who has been born of God does not sin, but the one who is born of God keeps him,[a](A) and the evil one does not touch him. 19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the sway of the evil one. 20 And we know that the Son of God has come(B) and has given us understanding so that we may know the true one.[b] We are in the true one—that is, in his Son, Jesus Christ.(C) He is the true God and eternal life.

New Living Translation
18 We know that God’s children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them. 19 We know that we are children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one.
20 And we know that the Son of God has come, and he has given us understanding so that we can know the true God.[a] And now we live in fellowship with the true God because we live in fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the only true God, and he is eternal life.
