13 I write these things to you who believe in the Son of God. I am writing this so that you may know that immortal life is yours.
1 John 5:13
14 So we can come to God believing that when we ask him for anything according to his will, he hears us.
1 John 5:14
15 Therefore we know that he hears us whenever we ask him for anything. Then we know that he gives us what we ask of him.
1 John 5:15
16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, then he ought to pray for his brother. God will give him life. I am talking about people who sin, but the punishment for their sins is not death. There are sins that end in death as punishment. I am not asking you to pray about this sin.
1 John 5:16
17 Doing wrong is always a sin. But there are also sins that do not lead to eternal death.
1 John 5:17
18 For we know that if any man be born of God, he sinneth not; The Son of God protects him, and the evil one (Satan) cannot harm him.
1 John 5:18
19 We know that we are God’s people, but the evil one (Satan) controls the whole world.
1 John 5:19
20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us wisdom, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true. And in fact our lives are in that one truth. That is the true God, and that is eternal life.
1 John 5:20
21 Therefore, my children, keep yourselves from false gods.
1 John 5:21
