1 John 5:12-16

English Standard Version

^12 (A)Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

That You May Know

¹³ I write ^(B)these things to you who ^(C)believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. ¹⁴ And this is ^(D)the confidence that we have toward him, that ^(E)if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. ¹⁵ And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

¹⁶ If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and ^(F)God^[a] will give him life—to those who commit sins that do not lead to death. ^(G)There is sin that leads to death; ^(H)I do not say that one should pray for that.
