1 John 3:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 (A)[a]And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.
23 (B)This is then his commandment, that we believe in the Name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave commandment.
24 (C)For he that keepeth his commandments, dwelleth in him, and he in him: and hereby we know that he abideth in us, even by that [b]Spirit which he hath given us.
