1 John 5:12-15

12 ¹He 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 ²These things I have written to you who ³believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have ⁴eternal life.

14 This is ⁵the confidence which we have before Him, that, ⁶if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever * we ask, ⁷we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
