# Everyone who has this hope fixed on him purifies himself just as he is pure
# Everyone who has this hope fixed on him
"Everyone who confidently expects to see Christ as he really is will keep himself pure because Christ is pure"
The word "him" refers to Christ. Having hope fixed on Christ means expecting that because of Christ, what is hoped for will happen. Alternate translation: "Everyone who has this hope because of Christ" or "Everyone who trusts Christ to fulfill this hope"
# who has this hope fixed on him
Here to have hope is to confidently expect something good. Alternate translation: "who confidently expects this because of Christ" or "who confidently waits in Chrsit for this"
# who has this hope fixed on him
The phrase "this hope" refers to the hope of being like Christ, as mentioned in the previous verse. Alternate translation: "who confidently expects in Christ to become like Christ" or "who confidently waits for Christ to cause him to become like Christ"
# purifies himself just as he is pure
"keeps himself pure because Christ is pure"
