and the world is passing away and with it the evil longings it incites, but whoever perseveres in doing God's will lives on forever.

Let what you have heard from the beginning continue to live in your hearts; if you do, you will always remain in union with the Son and the Father.

And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask for anything that is in accordance with His will, He will listen to us.

If anyone sees his brother committing a sin that does not lead to death, he will ask and God will grant him life; yea, He will grant it to any who do not commit a sin that leads to death. There is a sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for that.
