Everyone who practices sin ¹  also practices lawlessness; ²  indeed, ³  sin is lawlessness.

Jesus answered them, “I tell you the solemn truth, ¹  everyone who practices ²  sin is a slave ³  of sin.

Do not lie to one another since you have put off the old man with its practices

If you know that he is righteous, you also know ¹  that everyone who practices righteousness has been fathered ²  by him.

Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness ¹  is righteous, just as Jesus ²  is righteous.

But you do have this going for you: ¹  You hate what the Nicolaitans ²  practice ³  – practices I also hate.

But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, so that it may be plainly evident that his deeds have been done in God. ¹ 

Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers ¹  and the sexually immoral, and the murderers, and the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood! ² 

The one who practices sin is of the devil, ¹  because the devil has been sinning ²  from the beginning. For this purpose ³  the Son of God was revealed: to destroy ⁴  the works of the devil.

but ¹  nothing ritually unclean ²  will ever enter into it, nor anyone who does what is detestable ³  or practices falsehood, ⁴  but only those whose names ⁵  are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

And the sound of the harpists, musicians, flute players, and trumpeters will never be heard in you ¹  again. No ²  craftsman ³  who practices any trade will ever be found in you again; the noise of a mill ⁴  will never be heard in you again.
