1 John 5:13

Our Assurance Of Eternal Life

¹² The person who has the Son [in his heart] possesses this "life;" the one who does not have the Son of God does not possess this "life." ¹³ I have written these things to you people, who believe in the name [i.e., in the person and work] of the Son of God, so that you can have assurance that you have [the hope of] never ending life. [See Titus 1:2; 3:7; Mark 10:30]. ¹⁴ And this is [how we can express] boldness in our relationship with God: Whatever we ask [of God, in prayer], so long as it is in harmony with His will for us, [we know] He hears our request.
