Andreas of Caesarea, on 1John 3:9
Andreas of Caesarea · c. A.D. 563–637
1John 3:9 · Douay-Rheims
“Whosoever is born of God, committeth not sin: for his seed abideth in him, and he can not sin, because he is born of God.”
On this verse:
“The divine seed is Christ, who dwells in believers and makes them become sons of God. Likewise, when it is said that in Abraham's seed all the nations will be blessed, this too is a reference to Christ. John says that the Spirit is the seed which we receive through the blessing of our mind. For he dwells in us, making the mind of sin no longer welcome.”
