1 John 3:20-24
201in whateverG3739G5100G1437 our heartG2588 condemnsG2607 us; for GodG2316 is greaterG3173 than our heartG2588 and knowsG1097 allG3956 thingsG3956. 212BelovedG27, ifG1437 our heartG2588 does not condemnG2607 us, we haveG2192 3confidenceG3954 4beforeG4314 GodG2316; 22and 5whateverG3739G1437 we askG154 we receiveG2983 from Him, becauseG3754 we 6keepG5083 His commandmentsG1785 and doG4160 7the things that are pleasingG701 in His sightG1799.
23ThisG3778 is His commandmentG1785, that we 89believeG4100 in 10the nameG3686 of His SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240, justG2531 as 11He 12commandedG1325G1785 us. 24The one who 13keepsG5083 His commandmentsG1785 14abidesG3306 in Him, and He in him. 15We knowG1097 by thisG3778 that 16He abidesG3306 in us, by the SpiritG4151 whomG3739 He has givenG1325 us.
