1 John 5:13-21
131These things I have written to you who 2believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have 3eternal life. 14This is 4the confidence which we have 5before Him, that, 6if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, 7we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
16If anyone sees his brother 8committing a sin not leading to death, 9he shall ask and 10God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. 11There is a sin leading to death; 12I do not say that he should make request for this. 1713All unrighteousness is sin, and 14there is a sin not leading to death.
1815We know that 16no one who is 17born of God sins; but He who was 18born of God 19keeps him, and 20the evil one does not 21touch him. 1922We know that 23we are of God, and that 24the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. 20And 25we know that 26the Son of God has come, and has 27given us understanding so that we may know 28Him who is true; and we 29are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. 30This is the true God and 31eternal life.
