1 John 3:22 Context
20For if our heart condemne vs, God is greater then our heart, and knoweth all things. 21Beloued, if our heart condemne vs not, then haue wee confidence towards God. 22And whatsoeuer we aske, wee receiue of him, because we keepe his commandement, and doe those things that are pleasing in his sight. 23And this is his commandement, that we should beleeue on the Name of his Sonne Iesus Christ, and loue one another, as hee gaue vs commandement. 24And hee that keepeth his commandements dwelleth in him, and hee in him: and hereby wee know that hee abideth in vs, by the spirit which hee hath giuen vs.
