Doing righteousness

 by David Long

"Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous" (1 John 3:7).

"In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother" (1 John 3:10). 

"If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him" (1 John 2:29).

Here is the difference between a child of God and a child of the devil, "Doing righteousness." Doing righteousness means keeping the commandments of God (Psa. 119:172).
