1 John 5:18 in Context — 1 John 5

16 Se alguém vê o seu irmão cometer um pecado que não é para a morte, orará, e lhe dará vida, para os que não pecarem para a morte. Há pecado para a morte, pelo qual não digo que ore.

17 Toda injustiça é pecado; e há pecado que não é para a morte.

18 Sabemos que todo aquele que é nascido de Deus não pratica o pecado; mas o que é gerado de Deus guarda a si mesmo, e o maligno não o toca.

19 Sabemos que somos de Deus, e que o mundo todo jaz no maligno.

20 E sabemos que o Filho de Deus veio, e nos deu entendimento para conhecermos o Verdadeiro; e no Verdadeiro estamos, em seu Filho Jesus Cristo. Este é o verdadeiro Deus, e a vida eterna.
