Hatred of Sin
Scripture
KJV
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
ESV
No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God.
1 John 3:9
Poem
Oh! give, Lord, the tender heart
That trembles at th' approach of sin,
A godly fear of sin impart,
Implant and root it deep within.
