1 John 3:17-24
17But 1whoeverG3739G302 hasG2192 worldlyG2889 goodsG979 and seesG2334 his brotherG80 or sister in needG5532, and 2closesG2808 his 3heartG4698 4againstG575 him, 5howG4459 does the loveG26 of GodG2316 remainG3306 in him? 186LittleG5040 childrenG5040, let’s not loveG25 with wordG3056 orG3366 with tongueG1100, but in deedG2041 and 7truthG225. 19We will knowG1097 by thisG3778 that we are 8of the truthG225, and will setG3982 our heartG2588 atG3982 easeG3982 beforeG1715 Him, 20that ifG1437 our heartG2588 condemnsG2607 us, that GodG2316 is greaterG3173 than our heartG2588, and He knowsG1097 allG3956 thingsG3956. 219BelovedG27, ifG1437 our heartG2588 does not condemnG2607 us, we haveG2192 10confidenceG3954 11beforeG4314 GodG2316; 22and 12whateverG3739G1437 we askG154, we receiveG2983 from Him, becauseG3754 we 13keepG5083 His commandmentsG1785 and doG4160 14the things that are pleasingG701 inG1799 His sightG1799.
23ThisG3778 is His commandmentG1785, that we 1516believeG4100 in 17the nameG3686 of His SonG5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, and loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240, justG2531 asG2531 18He 19commandedG1325G1785 us. 24The one who 20keepsG5083 His commandmentsG1785 21remainsG3306 in Him, and He in him. 22We knowG1097 by thisG3778 that 23He remainsG3306 in us, by the SpiritG4151 whomG3739 He has givenG1325 us.
