1 John 3:18-22

¹⁸My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.

¹⁹And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,

²⁰because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.

²¹Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;

²²so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
