1 John 3:18-24

18 My little children, let us not love in word neither in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
19 And in this we know that we are of the truth and have our hearts certified before him.
20 And if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things.
21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, then we have confidence in God;
22 and whatsoever we ask, we receive of him because we keep his commandments and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he has commanded us.
24 And he that keeps his commandments dwells in him, and he in him. And in this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.
