He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Study Note
The declaration — 'the one who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil' — presents the Incarnation's purpose in cosmological-warfare terms. The phrase 'of the devil' (ek tou diabolou) defines moral origin and formation: persistent sin patterns the sinner after the devil's continuous practice, just as righteousness patterns the believer after the divine nature (3:9). The aorist 'appeared' (ephanerothe) contrasts with the ongoing 'sinning' (hamartatnei) of the devil, presenting the Incarnation as a decisive historical intervention against a long-standing cosmic rebellion. 'Destroy the works of the devil' (lyse ta erga tou diabolou) has been interpreted as already accomplished (at the cross) and as progressively realized (through the Spirit's work in believers) — both readings finding support in 1 John's realized and futurist eschatology.
