1 John 5:13-21 - Our Assurance Of Eternal Life

13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

14 And this is the confidence which we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

16 If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not lead to death, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should pray about that. 17 All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.

18 We know that anyone born of God does not sin; but he who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.

19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the power of the evil one.

20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
