What does John's message say about living a holy life?

Answered in 1 source

John stresses that those born of God will strive for holiness and righteousness as an expression of their faith.

In 1 John 3:3, we learn that everyone who has this hope in Christ purifies himself just as He is pure. This purifying process stems from our identity as children of God and is empowered by the Holy Spirit working within us. True believers cannot be content with sin; rather, they should desire to imitate Christ. As John explains, the hope of being transformed into His likeness motivates believers to reject sin and strive for a life that reflects God’s holiness. Thus, living a holy life is not merely a command but a natural outcome of our renewed nature as we grow in the knowledge of God’s grace and love.
