1 John 3:17-24

17But whoso may have the world's substance, and seeG2334 his brotherG80 having needG5532, and shutG2808 up his bowels from him, howG4459 abidesG3306 the loveG26 of 1GodG2316 in him? 18ChildrenG5040, let us not loveG25 with wordG3056, nor with tongueG1100, but in deedG2041 and in truthG225. 19And hereby we shall knowG1097 that we areG1510 of the truthG225, and shall persuadeG3982 our heartsG2588 before him — 20that if our heartG2588 condemnG2607 us, 2GodG2316 isG1510 greaterG3173 than our heartG2588 and knowsG1097 all thingsG3956. 21BelovedG27, if our heartG2588 condemnG2607 us not, we have boldnessG3954 towards 3GodG2316, 22and whatsoever we askG154 we receiveG2983 from him, because we keepG5083 his commandmentsG1785, and practise the thingsG3739 which are pleasingG701 in his sight. 23And this isG1510 his commandmentG1785, that we believeG4100 on the nameG3686 of his SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and that we loveG25 oneG240 another, evenG2532 as he has givenG1325 us commandmentG1785. 24And he that keepsG5083 his commandmentsG1785 abidesG3306 in him, and he in him. And hereby we knowG1097 that he abidesG3306 in us, by the SpiritG4151 which he has givenG1325 to us.
