1 John 5: 14 - 21
|
| 14
|
And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.
|
| 15
|
And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him.
|
| 16
|
If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that.
|
| 17
|
All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin which is not mortal.
|
| 18
|
We know that any one born of God does not sin, but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.
|
| 19
|
We know that we are of God, and the whole world is in the power of the evil one.
|
| 20
|
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, to know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
