1 John 3:21-24 ▼

21 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence in the presence of God.

22 Whatever we request we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.

23 And this is his commandment: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus the Messiah, and to love one another as he commanded us.

24 The person who keeps his commandments abides in God, and God abides in him. This is how we can be sure that he remains in us: he has given us his Spirit.
