1 John 5:15

---

← 1 John 5:14	1 John 5:15 (KJV)	1 John 5:16 →
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:	And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.	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.
