New Testament1 JohnThe Power of Intercession · 5:13–195:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.5:14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:5:15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.5:17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.5:19 And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
