13 I wrote these things to you who believe in the name of Ben-Elohim, so you may know that you have eternal life.
14 Now this is the confidence we have before 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 we have asked from Him.
16 If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he should ask, and God will give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death—I am not saying you should ask about that.
17 All unrighteousness is sin, but there is sin not leading to death.
18 We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; rather, the One born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot touch him.
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
