1 John 5:11–21
11 And the testimony is this, that God has given us aeternal life, and bthis life is in His Son.
12 aHe who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
This Is Written That You May Know
13 aThese things I have written to you who bbelieve in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have ceternal life.
14 This is athe confidence which we have 1before Him, that, bif we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, awe know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
16 If anyone sees his brother 1committing a sin not leading to death, ahe shall ask and 2God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. bThere is a sin leading to death; cI do not say that he should make request for this.
17 aAll unrighteousness is sin, and bthere is a sin not leading to death.
18 aWe know that bno one who is 1born of God sins; but He who was 1born of God ckeeps him, and dthe evil one does not etouch him.
19 aWe know that bwe are of God, and that cthe whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
20 And awe know that bthe Son of God has come, and has cgiven us understanding so that we may know dHim who is true; and we eare in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. fThis is the true God and geternal life.
