John explained even more clearly that those who do good are from God and those who do evil are not. He didn’t hold any punches. It’s not that doing something wrong means that we are not a Christian, but continually pursuing evil is not a sign of a changed heart. The changed heart pursues what is good because it knows that that is pleasing to God.
