2 Beloved, anow we are children of God; and bit has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, cwe shall be like Him, for dwe shall see Him as He is.  
3 aAnd everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.  

Sin and the Child of God

4 Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and asin is lawlessness.  
5 And you know athat He was manifested bto take away our sins, and cin Him there is no sin.  
6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

John Wesley's Notes
<< 1 John 3:1   1 John 3:3 >>


1 John 3:2

It doth not yet appear - Even to ourselves. What we shall be - It is something ineffable, which will raise the children of God to be, in a manner, as God himself. But we know, in general, that when he, the Son of God, shall appear, we shall be like him - The glory of God penetrating our inmost substance. For we shall see him as he is - Manifestly, without a veil. And that sight will transform us into the same likeness.
