1 John 3:22-24

Good News Translation

²² We receive from him whatever we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him. ^23 (A)What he commands is that we believe in his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as Christ commanded us. ²⁴ Those who obey God's commands live in union with God and God lives in union with them. And because of the Spirit that God has given us we know that God lives in union with us.
