1 John 3:17-24

17ButG1161 whosoG3739 hathG2192 this world’sG3588G2889 goodG3588G979, andG2532 seethG2334 hisG846 brotherG3588G80 haveG2192 needG5532, andG2532 shutteth upG2808 hisG846 bowelsG3588G4698 of compassion fromG575 himG846, howG4459 dwellethG3306 the loveG3588G26 of GodG3588G2316 inG1722 himG846?

18MyG1473 little childrenG5040, let usG25 notG3361 loveG25 in wordG3056, neitherG3366 in tongueG1100; butG235 in deedG2041 andG2532 in truthG225.

19AndG2532 herebyG1722 we knowG1097 thatG3754 we areG1510 ofG1537 the truthG3588G225, andG2532 shall assureG3982 ourG1473 heartsG3588G2588 beforeG1715 himG846.

20ForG3754 ifG1437 ourG1473 heartG3588G2588 condemn usG2607, GodG3588G2316 isG1510 greater thanG3173 ourG1473 heartG3588G2588, andG2532 knowethG1097 all thingsG3956.

21BelovedG27, ifG1437 ourG1473 heartG3588G2588 condemnG2607 usG1473 notG3361, then have weG2192 confidenceG3954 towardG4314 GodG3588G2316.

22AndG2532 whatsoeverG3739 we askG154, we receiveG2983 ofG3844 himG846, becauseG3754 we keepG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG3588G1785, andG2532 doG4160 those things that are pleasingG701 inG1799 hisG846 sightG1799.

23AndG2532 thisG3778 isG1510 hisG846 commandmentG3588G1785, ThatG2443 we should believeG4100 on the nameG3588G3686 of hisG846 SonG3588G5207 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 loveG25 one anotherG240, asG2531 he gaveG1325 usG1473 commandmentG1785.

24AndG2532 he that keepethG5083 hisG846 commandmentsG3588G1785 dwellethG3306 inG1722 himG846, andG2532 heG846 inG1722 himG846. AndG2532 herebyG1722 we knowG1097 thatG3754 he abidethG3306 inG1722 usG1473, byG1537 the SpiritG3588G4151 whichG3739 he hath givenG1325 usG1473.
