"My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not." (1 John 2:11My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: (1 John 2:1).) The believer... should never for one moment receive the thought that sin cannot be avoided. If he once admits that sin is a necessary part of his experience, he will soon lose sight of its true character, its hatefulness to God... and in the end become the prey and sport of the evil one as to his walk through this world.
